THE EMBLEM

The traditional Ghanaian Adinkra symbol “Nea onnim no sua a, ohu” is placed at the centre of the emblem. A Gear (in orange) with a blue outline surrounds the Adinkra symbol in a white background.
The name of the Institution (written on a blue background) can be found at the outer of the above elements and it is artistically designed to fit the path of the circle to hinge on the slogan (in white background) “Innovating for Development” at the bottom of the emblem.
