Brand Guidelines
The MYCDIC identity must be used with accuracy, restraint, and institutional discipline. These guidelines apply to public materials, media work, documents, events, partnerships, certificates, digital platforms, and any communication using the Council name, logo, or visual identity.
Official standards for public use
This page sets the rules for designers, media professionals, partners, volunteers, members, and institutional teams preparing materials that include the MYCDIC name, initials, logo, documents, or public identity.
Official MYCDIC identity
The MYCDIC logo, name, initials, official documents, certificates, visual elements, and public materials form part of the Council's institutional identity. They may only be used for approved, accurate, and non-misleading purposes.
Institutional status notice
MYCDIC is an international non-governmental youth organization registered in Spain and operating through its approved institutional structure. The use of Moroccan colors, national cultural references, or heraldic-style elements in the visual identity reflects the Council's Moroccan youth identity and international mission. It must not be presented as proof of governmental, diplomatic, consular, royal, ministerial, embassy, or public authority status.
Official colors
The color palette should be used consistently and with restraint. Public materials must remain formal, readable, and aligned with the Council's institutional image.
