The presence of the EU flag makes it clear that we are part of the collection of EU institutions and bodies.
The logo has been designed for us by @EUlawdatapubs@twitter.com.
For the visual identity - which encompasses complementary visual elements, colours, events material, etc. we worked with #PomilioBlumm, a design agency from Italy.
The stylised waves of the logo resemble a bird in flight. Its vantage point signifies the view the Ombudsman has over the EU administration.
The three elements represent the Ombudsman's mission: accountability, transparency and trust.
