I can’t find an allround usable logo for Diamond Open Access in general. Would it be an idea for the EDCH to have one designed and make it available through Wikimedia Commons?
I think this is a good idea to have a kind of universal logo for Diamond OA. But not sure it would be well received by other continents if the EDCH would impose one. Would’nt it be more inclusive and more fun to open a kind of competition at global level and have everyone voting for the best ? I mean really globally from all countries !

Hi all! Yes, I really like the idea of a global, community-designed logo for Diamond OA! Rather than proposing a logo ourselves, the EDCH could help coordinate the process (by opening a call for proposals, collecting submissions, and sharing them publicly for example). We could first use the forum to gather and discuss ideas on how to organise it, but of course, we’d need to go beyond it to ensure global participation (as it is an european forum). This could even be a nice opportunity to connect with Diamond OA communities outside Europe and raise awareness about each other’s work!
