About the Logos

The logos for the International Day for Biological Diversity 2008 have been designed from a traditional Gabba embroidered tapestry from Pakistan that was donated to the CBD Museum of Nature and Culture in 2006 by Pakistan’s Minister for Environment. Reproduced in full on the poster, extracts from the tapestry are reproduced in a set of five logos that depict different aspects of a traditional mixed farming system – from the plough to the cooking pot.

The logos are available in all United Nations Languages, in zipped files, in two formats:

• EPS files in CMYK format, suitable for printing. These can be used for printing on a variety of items, including badges and stickers, or even t-shirts and handbags.

• JPEG files in RGB format, suitable for use on the web.
