How are new emojis created and approved?

New emojis are created and approved through a process managed by the Unicode Consortium. Individuals or organizations can submit proposals for new emojis, which include evidence of the proposed emoji's anticipated use, cultural significance, and potential to fill existing representation gaps. After submission, Unicode reviews and votes on these proposals. Approved emojis are then included in the Unicode standard updates.
