However, we have been asked to outline a communication framework to define how we intend to position GARD branding in respect of WHO branding (e.g. who can use GARD logo?; shall GARD logo be used always along with WHO logo?). Once the framework has been outlined and agreed by LEG (Sept-Oct 2006), GARD will be able to use its own logo and to launch the co-brand website.

ACE reviewed the logo discussed by GARD collaborating parties in Beijing and asked for some changes.

The proposals will then be submitted again to GARD collaborating parties for their decision and approval. GARD Logo
