000 Logo | International Decade for Action 'Water for Life' 2005-2015

Decade's logo

1. Design

Water for Life Decade Logo

The Water for Life Decade Logo depicts a fountain of water painted in dark blue. The fountain consists of two cupped hands rising out from an ocean of water represented by two horizontal broad wavy lines. In a point-line style the water streams out of the fountain in both directions, portraying water that is harnessed 'for Life'. The words "Water for Life 2005-2015" appear below the artwork.

The Water for life decade logo is available in the six official United Nations languages: Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Russian and Spanish.

The Water for Life decade logo might be subject to national variations. A national variation of the logo should maintain the core design, but may add, to top or bottom, the name of the country (or a city or locality within that country) and/or a slogan judged appropriate to the Decade and suitable in the national or local context.
