Hi Siem,
Many thanks for these very useful points. I will add them to our bank of feedback and get back to you after the consultation period.
Thanks again and do let me know if you have any other thoughts over the next week.
All the bestm

Controversial opinion: I think this would be A Good Thing.
stevieflow:What if d-portal were embedded? I.e. you don’t bounce, you explore IATI data within the IATI website. IATI already owns iatidata.org …
I think I made a similar point via the form, but not sure, due to limited space. But, to echo [~379], I think this will be tricky. If people are led to thinking they can “search IATI” on the homepage that becomes a thing - they might start to associate IATI with a database that can be searched. And - if they can’t find what they are searching for, there’ll blame IATI. And then — if IATI switches them into d-portal, the whole UX becomes fragmented. End result could be a super high bounce rate
