Use of our logo 

“European Forest Institute”, abbreviation “EFI” is protected by Article 6ter of the Paris Convention: Protection of State Emblems, and Names, Abbreviations and Emblems of International Intergovernmental Organisations. It is comparable to a state emblem, and should be treated as such. There are certain basic rules that need to be followed while using it.

  • The shape and the angle of the EFI leaf may not be changed.
  • The leaf may not be used in such a manner that it is associated with another institute or company – please confirm the use for promotional uses and printed materials with the EFI Secretariat.
  • The logo should not stand out from the background, i.e. if you are using it on a green background, there should not be a white box behind the logo. If this happens, you are most likely using the wrong file.
