Introducing the New SAFA Logo
As we celebrate our 40th anniversary, SAFA has decided to update our visual identity. The new logo (seen above), acknowledges our connection to our employer through a shared colour palette while emphasizing our academic focus. This modern design represents our commitment to staying relevant and responsive to the needs of our members and the academic community.
Our new slogan, “Collegiality in Action,” is forward-facing, capturing the essence of our members who exemplify teamwork, mutual respect, and a shared commitment to educational success for our students. This refreshed visual identity is more than just a logo; it’s a testament to our enduring dedication to supporting and empowering our members, advocating for fair wages and reasonable workloads, and fostering an environment where collaboration and academic excellence thrive.
Thank you to the branding and logo sub-committee who have been working for almost a year to develop this new identity. The new logo and visual identity will be rolled out during the summer and early fall.
