Defensoría del Pueblo
Rights, made visible.
The Defensoría del Pueblo, Peru's Ombudsman's Office, protects and defends the rights of individuals and communities by overseeing the State's obligations. Its identity is built around six deputy offices, including Women's Rights, Public Services, Indigenous Peoples, and Childhood and Adolescence. The hands in the logo stand for presence. The flower is taken from an embroidery pattern from Ayacucho, a region that faced great hardship in the 1980s. The system is structured like a puzzle: each office is a piece, and together they form one institution that can communicate clearly with the diverse communities and institutions across Peru.
While the identity project may not have been fully implemented, we wanted to share and celebrate the creative process we experienced while collaborating with these talented individuals: Ena Andrade, Luben Petkoff | Defensoría del Pueblo team: Nora Loredo de Izcue, Gaby Bustamante.
