Google Promoting Gender Equality Through Emoji

In May, Google proposed a set of new emoji to the Unicode Technical Committee that represent a wider range of professions for women (as well as men), and reflect the pivotal roles that women play in the world. Since then, they have worked closely with members of the Unicode Emoji Subcommittee to bring the proposal to life.

The Unicode Emoji Subcommittee has agreed to add 11 new professional emoji, in both male and female options and with all the skin tones. That’s more than 100 new emoji to choose from!

The emoji’s below are available in both genders now.
