- Rather than replace my original photography with World Pulse approved brand photos, I have removed photography completely. I don't want to pull you into an uncomfortable space with jarring images, but I also don't want to leave you in a familiar space. That photography served its purpose for color research, and has been discarded. Your photography will be added back in later as we begin to work with specific components.
- I tried to avoid using branding-laden language on this mission of aesthetics and thus have removed the word “Pulse” from this set. Rather than evoking a particular aesthetic quality, it represents the quest for a spirit/initiative or specific feature. Let's talk Pulse in the near future!

Visual impact created with large, documentary photography, reinforced by sophisticated but simple typography and a subtle UI featuring soft-neutral boundaries with right-angles or minimally rounded borders to frame content and direct interactions, conveying a modern strength and dependability. Reminiscent of the World Pulse website, with inspiration from Catapult.org, Yale School of Management: Insights, Global Press Journal, Open Society Foundations, and National Public Radio.
World Pulse's Greatest Hits: 2013
Today, the women of World Pulse's growing network (60,000 strong from 190+ countries) are improving over 2.2 million lives. With new recognition, awards, and exponentially increasing impact, World Pulse is one step closer to facilitating a digital vocal uprising for global transformation powered by millions of women on the ground from every region of the world.
Leading in the Technology Sector
- World Pulse played a key role in a groundbreaking report called Women and the Web
- In recognition of our innovative approach using technology to empower women, World Pulse was awarded a Next Century Innovator Rockefeller award.
So, What's Next?
Community Powered and Community Led
In 2014, we will continue the exciting process of building the technical infrastructure needed to reach and sustain a vocal, online community of millions of women speaking for themselves. We will continue to grow our online community leadership roles and preserve the safe, supporting culture that enables a critical mass of women on the ground to manage, lead, and grow our network. We believe this is true sustainability and scalability.
When I first heard about the World Pulse website I ran home to check it out. I felt like was in a country where all the ladies are rulers and our defense forces are the voices of girls around the globe. World Pulse is different from all the other websites, connecting women so they can work on a massive level. Once I thought, 'Why nobody change the things?' Then I realized, why can't that nobody be me?" —Mahrukh Pasha, Pakistan

Visual impact created by bold, secondary colors with isolated areas to visually group content, accentuating titles and photography. Strong horizontal borders connote confidence, but retain an approachability from the more welcoming palette. Reminiscent of the World Pulse magazine (print editions), with inspiration from Catapult.org, Open Society Foundations, Smashing Magazine, National Public Radio, and Global Press Journal.

Great Work!
I am thrilled to know more about the numerous achievements recorded by World Pulse, and I am particularly happy and feel really privileged to be a part of World Pulse. It is so amazing that as large as the community is, every voice matters, is heard and counts.
The World Pulse Community has been a pillar of support to me, my work and community, and it (the connections, conversations, learning resources, opportunies and more) is all getting better and adding up by the day.

World Pulse team members are proud of and nostalgic for brand assets of the past and the present. Leveraging the current/existing palette of rich, organic tertiary colors which convey a non-specific international diversity and combining it with refreshed, more legible typography and modern layout techniques freshens the look and feel without departing from current standards. Reminiscent of the World Pulse website (especially in color), with inspiration from Vital Voices, an Global Press Journal, and
