We are the Rasnov team, consisting of Mitchell Decelles, Annika Keck, Alex Lagle, and Vanshika Rohera 

Rasnov, Romania has been experiencing loss of culture due to changes in demographics and emigration. The goal of this project was to preserve culture by developing a website where users can upload memories they have of Rasnov. The team interviewed residents to better understand motivation for preserving Rasnov’s culture, completed case studies of successful websites with similar purposes, and demonstrated mock layouts to our collaborators. The team found that many residents had a strong desire to share and preserve their history. Using all the information gathered the team created the Povesti Locale website with post galleries, an interactive map, and user uploads that allowed for the people of Rasnov to share and promote their stories, preserving their impactful memories.
