Call for Logo Design Proposals for the China-Africa Agricultural Science and Technology Innovation Alliance (CAASTIA)

小 中 大

In September 2024, at the Beijing Summit of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC), President Xi Jinping delivered a keynote address, proposing the ten partnership actions for China-Africa Modernization to deepen China-Africa cooperation and lead the modernization of the Global South. As an important initiative under the Partnership Action for Agriculture and Livelihoods, the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences (CAAS) and the African Academy of Sciences (AAS) jointly launched the China-Africa Agricultural Science and Technology Innovation Alliance (CAASTIA) at the 2024 China-Africa Innovation Cooperation and Development Forum, ushering in a new chapter in China-Africa agricultural science and technology cooperation.

To support its development, effectively communicate its mission and vision, highlight its core functions and values, and enhance public awareness and recognition, we hereby invite proposals for the official logo design of CAASTIA. The relevant details are as follows:

I. About CAASTIA

To implement the FOCAC Beijing Action Plan (2025–2027), CAAS and AAS have jointly initiated the establishment of CAASTIA. This alliance serves as an international platform to promote China-Africa agricultural science and technology cooperation, foster the integration of agricultural technology with industry, achieve mutually beneficial cooperation and sustainable development, and contribute to Africa’s attainment of the United Nations 2030 Sustainable Development Goals and the African Union’s Agenda 2063. The alliance is committed to building a new-era, all-weather China-Africa community with a shared future.

Chinese Name: 中非农业科技创新联盟

Abbreviation: CAASTIA

CAASTIA is a non-governmental, non-profit international cooperation platform, dedicated to facilitating exchanges and collaboration among agricultural research institutions, higher education institutions, and agribusiness enterprises across China and Africa. The alliance upholds the principles of openness and inclusivity, complementarity of strengths, joint contribution and shared benefits, and mutual win-win cooperation. It welcomes institutions with requisite qualifications, foundational capabilities, and willingness to participate, with the aim of accelerating the formation of a comprehensive cooperation ecosystem that deeply integrates scientific research, industry, and finance, fostering a multi-stakeholder model of shared benefits and coordinated development in agricultural science and industry.

II. Logo Design Requirements

    The design should be distinctive and meaningful, effectively representing the alliance’s core functions, positioning, and cultural significance.
