The website is designed around the WCAG 2.0 standards, ensuring full accessibility for people with disabilities. The bilingual platform, in Greek and English, lets a wider audience navigate and interact with the content. During the rebuild we made sure every article from the previous website was transferred smoothly, while the redesigned content search makes browsing simple and easy for citizens. A distinctive feature of the website is the colour coding of announcements by category, which helps users quickly find the updates that matter to them. The website was designed by our close partner, Tooman Design, and the development was handled by the WebMate team.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"wp-block-group full-screen
