Guidelines
October 2021
This project has received funding from the European Union’s
Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Programme under grant
agreement No 101000395.
Introduction
The PATHWAYS visual identity plays an essential role in promoting the project; as such, it is imperative to respect these
guidelines when using the logo, font and colours for any external or internal communication, such as presentation templates,
posters, business cards, flyers, social media, and so on.
The following guidelines provide a framework for using the brand identity in a consistent manner. Consistency communicates
reliability and provides the foundation for working together in an efficient way. While maintaining the highest quality standard,
our choice of words and images are opportunities to show that we understand and engage with our audiences.
These visual identity guidelines are a living document and may be updated to accommodate changing requirements. If you
require assistance, additional support materials, or adjustments for a specific situation, please contact the PATHWAYS Team.
Likewise, if for any reason, you need to work outside the scope of these visual identity guidelines, please also contact a
member of the PATHWAYS Team.

The logo
PATHWAYS is about identifying and increasing sustainable practices along the supply and production chains of the European
livestock sector. The PATHWAYS logo illustrates some of the livestock sectors targeted by the project in a very simplistic icon
with, at its core, a line (path) running across the three livestock sectors.
