Icons
Design stereotypes are everywhere. This is evident across so many fields, including iconography, illustration, infographics, and photography. Unfortunately, even humanitarian organisations like ours have room for improvement in achieving diversity, inclusion, and representation in design.
To counteract this, we are dedicated to developing an inclusive, diverse, and gender-neutral brand that challenges harmful stereotypes and toxic hierarchies. One of our initial steps is to focus on iconography, ensuring that the IFRC becomes a leading inclusive brand.
The goals:
Challenge our stereotypes and assumptions
Change our illustration language
Better represent marginalised groups
Make gender-neutral icons the default
