The story behind the logo

The logo for the Honiara Summit is more than just a design; it’s a symbol of Pacific unity, culture, and identity. Every element in the logo tells a story, representing the Pacific people's rich heritage, shared resources, and collective aspirations.
 

The Logo was designed as part of a logo competition, providing an opportunity for graphic designers and artists to share their creative representation of the Honiara Summit.
 

Honiara-based graphic artist Kurt Kuper was named the winner and was amongst 41 other applicants. His design was selected by the Honiara Summit Steering Committee.

The silhouettes

The silhouettes around the logo represent our people in the Pacific, diverse cultures and races that come together to work together to achieve a common goal. This ties in with the 'Iumi Tugeda' aspect of the Honiara Summit 2025 theme.
