WBG logo update - message from the FFC
Thank you to those who have already submitted logo designs for the Women's Boat to Gaza Project. We are pleased to announce that the deadline for submissions has been extended to January 25, 2016. See WBG message below for details*. Women artists, please submit to mediawbg@gmail.com.
To remind you, we are looking for a logo that can be scaled for multiple uses, is clear and appealing, and can be used in color or grayscale/black and white. The logo should reflect the values and principles of our project, that aim to highlight the undeniable contributions and indomitable spirit of Palestinian women, in Palestine and around the world. Submissions are being accepted by all of our international partner projects and the winner will be announced on Feb. 1, 2016. Please share this email with your contacts.
Israeli forces continue to target civilians along the border area of the Gaza strip. Palestinian fishermen continue to be targeted by Israeli forces. The Palestinian Center For Human Rights reports that between December 17-30 alone, " 23 Palestinian fishermen, including 2 children, were arrested and 6 fishing boats were confiscated in the northern Gaza Strip." In the Gaza strip, Israeli forces killed 3 Palestinian civilians and wounded 59 more, including 10 children during their ongoing attacks.
Canada Boat to Gaza and the Freedom Flotilla Coalition are working hard to stop such atrocities and for the restoration of full rights to freedom of movement for all Palestinians. Please join us in our struggle for justice.
In Solidarity

* Message from the WBG committee
We have been asking for your help and involvement in designing a logo for the Women's Boat to Gaza and have decided to extend the deadline for submissions until the 25th of January. This since we would like to give all candidates a fair chance to participate
The Women's boat to Gaza is a Freedom Flotilla Coalition (FFC) initiative. By launching a women’s boat, women from all over the world aim to highlight the undeniable contributions and indomitable spirit of Palestinian women who have been central within the Palestinian struggle in Gaza, the West Bank, inside the Green Line and in the diaspora. More info further below*.
Here is what we are looking for:
- A logo that is scalable,clear and appealing whether it is reduced to a thumbnail or painted on the hull of a boat.
- A logo that could be used in color or in grayscale/B&W
- The deadline for submissions is January 25, 2016.
The adopted design will be announced within the couple of weeks that follow.
- Only open to women designers
- Please send your designs to mediawbg@gmail.com with WBG logo in the subject line. If you have any questions in the meantime you can direct them to the same address.
* Background:
Gaza has been under Israeli blockade for the past decade during which Israel has also launched countless attacks against the besieged population, turning their life into a nightmare and a continuous struggle. Through Freedom Flotillas and other naval missions we have brought international attention to their suffering and their resistance.
The Women's Boat to Gaza (WBG) seeks not only to challenge the Israeli blockade but to also show solidarity and bring a message of hope to the Palestinian people. With the support of women, men, non-governmental organizations, civil society groups and from women's collectives and events around the world, we will make this happen.
FFC is composed of civil society organizations and initiatives from many countries. We have been challenging the illegal and inhuman Israeli blockade of Gaza for years and are committed to continue the struggle until the blockade is unconditionally lifted and the Palestinian people everywhere regain their full rights.
