It has stood the test of time: while we’ve revised our tagline twice, the logo has not changed at all during our decade-long existence. In the past few years, we’ve playfully donned a fitting cap on it for the festivities of Christmas and the New Year (design on the right by Sandra Morales and Antonio Luna). See this fesity festive version with its working clothes on on our 2014 Christmas card sporting the season’s logo. We temporarily trade farming and crops for festivities and toasts during that season.

gcp-logo-sunset smallMore recently, to mark our sunset, another slightly modified version (left) was designed by Brandon Tooke in December 2014. This version marks GCP's transition from 'growth green' in the Programme's eastablishment and operational phase, to 'harvest gold' in its closing and concluding stages.

This  modified logo was primarily for use on the Sunset Blog which carries GCP's closing communications.
