HARAKA is a feminist initiative led by NOVACT (Institute for Nonviolent Action), in partnership with ATFD (Tunisian Association of Democratic Women) and the Joussour association. The project works to protect and advance women's rights in Tunisia.
The HARAKA logo is a fusion of movement, leadership, and commitment to women's rights. Every graphic element was designed to convey the project's core values.
Movement: Inspired by waves, a symbol of fluidity and continuity, referencing feminist waves and struggles that keep moving forward.
Leadership: A pink dot at the crest of the waves suggests a feminine silhouette leading the movement — like a captain navigating through challenges.
Solidarity: An isolated female figure (combined with a triangle) takes the shape of the goddess Tanit, a feminine deity of Carthage evoking strength and protection. Together, these figures form a chain of women united hand in hand, illustrating the power of mutual support.
The Word: The word "HARAKA" in Arabic is subtly woven into the wave-like forms of the logo — the calligraphy blends into the movement rather than standing apart from it, symbolizing the union between the message and the action it carries.
Freedom: Remove the stroke representing the letter "Kef" in "Haraka," and the word becomes "Horria" — "freedom" in Arabic. This transformation illustrates the fight for women's freedom within a collective movement.
Primary colors — Turquoise Blue & Coral Red
Balance: strong complementarity between calming blue and energetic red.
Symbolism: trust, dynamism, and commitment.
Relevance: well suited to a project combining action and serenity.
A strong choice reflecting a spirit of movement and innovation with a modern edge.
HARAKA is not just a logo — it's a true graphic manifesto, embodying collective strength, resilience, and commitment to a future where women's rights are protected and advanced.
