Proposals for characters other than emoji and Han are reviewed by the Script Ad Hoc, so this page tells you more about the process:
https://www.unicode.org/consortium/scriptadhoc.html

That page also links to a template for proposing the encoding of a new character:

Don’t worry about that; the SAH can find a code point for your character (see page 2 of the template).
