About WHO World Health Organization

A black, emblem-style mark sits at left: a circular seal containing a simplified azimuthal world map overlaid by a vertical staff with a single snake coiled around it, all enclosed by a symmetrical pair of olive branches forming a wreath. The emblem is rendered as a flat, high-contrast black silhouette on a white background.

To the right of the emblem is a black uppercase wordmark in a plain sans-serif typeface reading "WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION" (arranged as a right-side wordmark). The overall look is formal, institutional and strictly monochrome.
