On the left, a circular emblem is filled with small green illustrations representing climate and environmental themes\u2014wind turbines, solar panels, trees, water, animals, and people\u2014arranged like a mosaic to symbolize sustainability and global climate action. To the right of the circle, the text \u201cCOP28 UAE\u201d is set in a bold, minimalist font: \u201cCOP\u201d in solid white, \u201c28\u201d in a thinner white typeface, and \u201cUAE\u201d outlined in green. The overall design feels contemporary, optimistic, and aligned with environmental advocacy."},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https:\/\/directaccessgp.com\/uk\/#website","url":"https:\/\/directaccessgp.com\/uk\/","name":"Direct Access","description":"International award-winning disability and accessibility organisation led by disabled people.","publisher":{"@id":"https:\/\/directaccessgp.com\/uk\/#organization"},"potentialAction":[{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https:\/\/directaccessgp.com\/uk\/?s={search_term_string}"},"query-input":{"@type":"PropertyValueSpecification","valueRequired":true,"valueName":"search_term_string"}}],"inLanguage":"en-GB"},{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https:\/\/directaccessgp.com\/uk\/#organization","name":"Direct Access","url":"https:\/\/directaccessgp.com\/uk\/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-GB","@id":"https:\/\/directaccessgp.com\/uk\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/","url":"https:\/\/directaccessgp.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Dark-Logo-Transparent-Background.png","contentUrl":"https:\/\/directaccessgp.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Dark-Logo-Transparent-Background.png","width":1328,"height":262,"caption":"Direct Access"},"image":{"@id":"https:\/\/directaccessgp.com\/uk\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/"},"sameAs":["https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/DirectAccessGp\/","https:\/\/x.com\/DirectAccessGp","https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/direct-access-consultancy-ltd\/","https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/directaccessconsultancy\/"]},{"@type":"Person","@id":"https:\/\/directaccessgp.com\/uk\/#\/schema\/person\/64f905bd0f656ae73f75fc4cb19ed034","name":"Michael Miller","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-GB","@id":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/ade228b7aa4f7f7a49d278fb3c5394e95935e3860f004de3615bb830d47e34b7?s=96&d=mm&r=g","url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/ade228b7aa4f7f7a49d278fb3c5394e95935e3860f004de3615bb830d47e34b7?s=96&d=mm&r=g","contentUrl":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/ade228b7aa4f7f7a49d278fb3c5394e95935e3860f004de3615bb830d47e34b7?s=96&d=mm&r=g","caption":"Michael Miller"}}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/directaccessgp.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5266","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/directaccessgp.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/directaccessgp.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/directaccessgp.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/13"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/directaccessgp.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5266"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/directaccessgp.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5266\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/directaccessgp.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5267"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/directaccessgp.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5266"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/directaccessgp.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5266"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/directaccessgp.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5266"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
