Registration

In order to participate actively within the RSR community, a user must have an account confirmed by an email handshake.

Registration for Akvo RSR is possible from any Akvo RSR page by clicking on the Register link in the Header.

In order to register a member of the public has to identify themselves as belonging to an existing organisation within RSR. To register an organisation check out the criteria for RSR Partners.

Once an organisation has become a partner, the Partner Team create the organisation using the Admin and this is then available in the organisation list.

On the next stage, the user is required to pick a unique username for their account as well as complete some basic information.

  • First and Last Name
  • Password
  • Email Address

Once this step is completed, the user will be sent an activation link via email.

HANDY HINT: The URL of step 2 of the Registration process is organisation encoded, meaning it's possible to direct users to the registration 'portal' of a particular organisation should you choose to. E.g. For Akvo (OrgId=42) http://rsr.akvo.org/accounts/register2/?org_id=42.
