EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

On December 29th, 2014, former USAID Administrator Rajiv Shah signed a special determination that allowed the Feed the Future initiative to provide naming, marking and branding guidance applicable to USAID-financed activities under the initiative. This determination was coupled with December 2014 updates to Automated Directives System (ADS) chapters 320 and 303, as well as 2 CFR 700, which clarified branding exceptions for presidential and other high-level interagency initiatives.

Effective January 1, 2015, new Feed the Future projects are able to utilize:

Clearer and more consistent project names that incorporate “Feed the Future” in the title, reference the country or region where they are active, and do not include acronyms.

The Feed the Future logo on co-branded communications products for both acquisition and assistance instruments.

This major step forward will help the U.S. Government and partners to be more cohesive and consistent in their global communications while increasing the initiative’s visibility.

The guidance in this manual was developed at the direction of the USAID Administrator, in consultation with several offices within the Agency: the Bureau for Food Security (BFS), the Office of Acquisition and Assistance (OAA), the Bureau for Public and Legislative Affairs (LPA), and the Office of the General Counsel (GC). While the guidance in this manual applies to USAID-funded Feed the Future activities, activities funded through other U.S. Government agency mechanisms as part of the initiative are also encouraged to apply them.

Major updates to the June 2015 version of this manual include:

Additional guidance on the use of local language in project names (page 11).

Clarification on the use of branded promotional items (page 45).

A new section with guidance on branding press releases (page 46).

Alternative disclaimer language for Feed the Future-funded mechanisms (pages 43 and 44).

Examples including updated Feed the Future templates.

Please consult www.feedthefuture.gov/branding for additional resources and updates, and email feedthefuturebranding@usaid.gov with questions.

HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL

This is the Graphic and Naming Standards Manual for Feed the Future, the U.S. Government’s global hunger and food security initiative.

It sets clear, consistent guidelines for the naming and graphic design for Feed the Future project communications. In this manual, the term “project” refers to any USAID-funded Feed the Future activity, project or program. In accordance with the Administrator’s determination dated December 29, 2014 as authorized by Automated Dir ectives System (ADS) 320 and 2 CFR 700, and in line with the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) Graphic Standards Manual, the guidelines in this manual are compulsory for USAID-funded Feed the Future project communications materials.

WHAT IS FEED THE FUTURE?

Feed the Future is the U.S. Government’s global hunger and food security initiative. With a focus on smallholder farmers, particularly women, Feed the Future supports partner countries in developing their own agriculture sectors to generate opportunities for economic growth and trade, which can help reduce poverty and hunger.

Feed the Future connects U.S. Government efforts that promote global food security and nutrition. Led by USAID, Feed the Future draws on the resources and expertise of the U.S. Departments of Agriculture (USDA), Commerce, State and Treasury; the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC); the United States African Development Foundation; the Peace Corps; the Overseas Private Investment Corporation; the Office of the United States Trade Representative; and the U.S. Geological Survey.

HISTORY OF OUR BRAND

At the July 2009 G-8 Summit in L’Aquila, Italy, President Obama announced to the global community that the United States would substantially increase its public-sector investment to boost global food security and agricultural productivity. This followed on a commitment he made at his first inaugural address to increase food security and nutrition in developing nations.

“ To the people of poor nations, we pledge to work alongside you to make your farms flourish and let clean waters flow; to nourish starved bodies and feed hungry minds.”

– President Barack Obama Inaugural Address, 2009

In the months that followed, a set of U.S. Government agencies—including the USDA, the Department of State, and USAID—began laying the groundwork for what eventually came to be called “Feed the Future,” the first whole-of-government Presidential Initiative focused on global food security and nutrition.

The first official Feed the Future logo was developed by USDA in early 2010 and managed at the Department of State. The logo stated “See, Feed, Change the Future” to match the slogan, “See the Future, Feed the Future, and Change the Future.” The initial colors— brown, green, and blue—were integrated to signify soil, agriculture, and water, respectively.

In November of that same year, USAID created the Bureau for Food Security (BFS) and assumed leadership of the new initiative, in close coordination with USDA, the State Department, MCC, and several other U.S. Government agencies.

Feed the Future continued to use the initial design until November 2011, when its updated website, www.feedthefuture.gov, was launched.

The new Feed the Future brand was the result of a consultative process integrating feedback and perspectives from multiple develop-ment stakeholders. “Feed the Future” replaced the “See, Feed, Change the Future” logo to enhance the overall brand’s visibility and consistency across agencies and implementing partners worldwide.

The Great Seal of the United States was directly incorporated into the logo. The tagline, “The U.S. Government’s Global Hunger and Food Security Initiative,” was added to emphasize the initiative’s “whole-of-government” approach and to highlight its focus on ending global hunger and poverty through agricultural development. The colors—blue, green, orange, and black—were updated to signify the future, agriculture, hope, and soil, respectively.

In December 2014, USAID policies were updated to ensure clear, consistent, and more effective communications by allowing for the branding of interagency and Presidential Initiatives.

BUILDING A GLOBAL BRAND

The first step in building a global brand is developing a visual identity that is used consistently on all communications—the Feed the Future identity.

The branding objectives are to:

Enhance the visibility and value of Feed the Future; and Improve the impact and consistency of communications across agencies and implementers.

MARKING VS. BRANDING

Marking is the application of the Feed the Future logo to USAID-funded Feed the Future programs.

Branding is more comprehensive, and includes the Feed the Future logo, fonts, colors, and design, as well as what is said about Feed the Future and how it is said. Not only written words, but also photos, colors, fonts, and layout all contribute to creating a specific brand.

UNIVERSAL STANDARDS

While there is a need for flexibility and adapting communications to specific countr y and project activities, the Feed the Future initiative has developed branding standards and guidance to promote common elements across Feed the Future materials. Use of these elements will help promote more consistent, effective communications and strengthen the identity and visibility of the initiative.

This Graphic and Naming Standards Manual sets the official universal standards for branding of the Feed the Future family of communications products.

PROJECT NAME CRITERIA

The name of a project* is equally as important to the Feed the Future brand as is marking. A specific, concise project name will help make clear the project’s purpose. The addition of “Feed the Future” to the beginning of each project name helps ensure that, even when used in absence of the logo, the name will be immediately associated with the Feed the Future initiative.

FEED THE FUTURE PROJECT NAME STANDARDS:

Begin with “Feed the Future.”

Reference the country or region where the project is focused. If the project is global in nature, either omit the country or region, or include the word “global” instead.

Be clear, concise, simple, and descriptive.

Unify and simplify the message, especially for external audiences.

Do not promote or “brand” bureaus or offices.

Do not use jargon or acronyms.

Do not reference implementing partners and internal organizational structures (e.g., “Implementing Partner’s Feed the Future

Ethiopia Value Chain Activity”).

Do not preface “Feed the Future” with “USAID’s” (Feed the Future is the U.S. Government’s, not USAID’s).

Spell out “Feed the Future” in all references in external materials. Do not use “FTF” or “FtF”.

Do not use or develop separate project logos or brandmarks.

*In this manual, the term “project” refers to any USAID-funded Feed the Future activity, project or program.

BEST PRACTICES:

Remember that general external audiences may become confused or have difficulty retaining separate project names, so be judicious in which products and where to include that level of detail.

The takeaway for general audiences should be centered around Feed the Future/U.S. Government support.

Project names should be simple and descriptive of the topline goal or core areas of expertise of a project. If a project focus is on maize, include that in the name, and ensure there is enough detail to distinguish one project from another (e.g., “Feed the Future [name of country] Maize Improvement Project”).

Final project names should be no more than 12 words total (including “Feed the Future,” the country/region, the description, and the word “project,” “program,” or “activity”) for English-only names.

Please note that on items such as signage that include the project name as part of the sign, “Feed the Future” does not need to be restated in the project name since the logo is present just above. See page 33 for an example.

CORRECT EXAMPLES (THESE ARE NOT REAL PROJECTS):

Feed the Future Kenya Coffee Bean Project

Feed the Future Bangladesh Fertilizer Deep Placement Project

Feed the Future West Africa Seed Systems Project

INCORRECT EXAMPLES (THESE ARE NOT REAL PROJECTS):

USAID’s Feed the Future Watershed for Africa Project

Incorrect because the project name starts with USAID.

Feed the Future is the U.S. Government’s initiative and draws on the resources and expertise of 11 federal agencies and departments. All project names must START with “Feed the Future,” NOT with the names of federal agencies and departments.

T o correct this example, remove “USAID’s”.

WINS (Water Initiative for Nutrition Security)

Incorrect because the project name uses acronyms and does not name a country or region. DO NOT use acronyms.

All project names must be spelled out completely to avoid confusion.

T o correct this example: Add Feed the Future at the beginning, as well as the country or region where the program will operate, and do not use an acronym. A correct version might be: Feed the Future Guatemala Water for Nutrition Program.

Feed the Future Program on Wheat

Incorrect because the project name does not reference a country or region, and it lacks specificity. All Feed the Future project names must reference country or region.

To correct this example: Either add the word “global” if this is a global project, or add the name of the country or region where the program is active. Correct examples include:

Feed the Future Global Wheat Improvement Program or Feed the Future Ethiopia Wheat Improvement Program

11 FEED THE FUTURE GRAPHIC AND NAMING STANDARDS MANUAL DOWNLOAD GRAPHICS AT: WWW.FEEDTHEFUTURE.GOV/BRANDING

USING LOCAL LANGUAGES IN PROJECT NAMING:

In some cases, use of the local language for project naming may be more effective or appropriate than using English, depending on the audience and project goals.

If a language other than English makes the most sense given the audience and project goals, the following guidelines must apply:

Start the project name with the English words “Feed the Future.” These words can be translated within the text of a product, e.g., “Feed the Future (‘Alimentando al Futuro’)”. Please note the Feed the Future logo will always appear in English, but select versions with a translated tagline are available at www.feedthefuture.gov/branding.

The remainder of the name can appear in the local language, including the word “project” or “program”.

Additional Feed the Future project naming guidelines still apply:

Reference the country or region (where applicable).

Be clear, concise, simple, and descriptive.

Do not promote or “brand” bureaus or offices.

Do not use jargon or acronyms, even in the local language.

Do not reference implementing partners and internal organizational structures.

Do not preface “Feed the Future” with “USAID’s”.

Spell out “Feed the Future” in all references in external materials. Do not use “FTF” or “FtF”.

Final translated project names should be no more than 15 words total (including “Feed the Future,” the country/region, the description, and the word “project,” “program,” or “activity.”)

Correct examples of translated Feed the Future project names (these are not real projects):

Feed the Future Guatemala Programa de Mejoramiento de Maize

Feed the Future Senegal programme “amender le riz au marché”

Feed the Future Mozambique projeto ajudando mulheres a prosperar

LOGO

OVERVIEW

The Feed the Future logo consists of three parts: The Great Seal of the United States, text treatment, and tagline. These must always be used together in either the horizontal or vertical format.

The integrity of the logo must be maintained. Do not recreate the logo. Do not skew the proportions or use alternative colors.

All three elements must be visible and legible.*

The Feed the Future logo is only to be used in the two formats—horizontal and vertical—shown on these pages. Horizontal use is preferred where spacing allows.

The reverse logo may be used on color backgrounds. Use Feed the Future colors (see color palette on page 19).

The tagline must be in black when a white background is used for the logo.

LOGO: SIZING REQUIREMENTS

When using the Feed the Future logo, make sure that all three elements, including the tagline, are large enough for the reader to see.

The horizontal logo must always be AT LEAST 2 inches (5.08 cm) wide and .375 inches tall (0.9525 cm) in all communications materials.

The vertical logo must always be AT LEAST 1.625 inches (4.191 cm) wide and .75 inches tall (1.905 cm) in all communications materials.

LOGO: SPACING REQUIREMENTS

A minimum area or “clear space” surrounding the Feed the Future logo must be kept free of any other text or graphic elements, such as illustrations, thematic images, and the trim edge of a printed piece. In certain cases, the logo may be overlayed on top of a photograph or patterned background provided that the logo is still clear and legible. The photograph or pattern must not be overly distracting from the logo.

Minimum clear space on all sides is equal to the height of the Feed the Future text, no matter the size of the tagline.

The letter “D” from the word “FEED” determines the height and width of the clear space around the logo, as shown below.

Products should use more than the minimum clear space where possible.

LOGO: CORRECT LOGO USE EXAMPLES

Below are some examples of how the logo may be used correctly.

The examples above are correct because:

The clear space is observed.

The color combinations are correct.

The minimum size is observed.

The color background is correct.

LOGO: INCORRECT LOGO USE EXAMPLES

The only color combinations allowed include the white Feed the Future logo on a blue, green, or orange background. Other color combinations are incorrect. A few typical incorrect uses of the logo are shown below.

Wrong color combination: Red is not a Feed the Future color.

Wrong color tagline: The tagline must be in black when a white background is used.

Placement over a busy photograph makes the logo hard to read.

COLOR PALETTE

The core palette for the logo was carefully selected to reflect the vision of Feed the Future:

Blue represents the future: We can achieve the vision to eradicate extreme poverty and hunger in our lifetime.

Green represents agriculture: We believe investing in agriculture is the most efficient and effective way to fight poverty.

Orange represents hope: We can help countries prosper and grow through targeted investments in agriculture-led growth.

Black represents the soil: We recognize that healthy agricultural systems start with the soil, a key ingredient for maintaining strong agricultural productivity and a clean environment.

Blue is the primary Feed the Future color. Green and orange are the secondary colors, and black and gray are accent colors.

Blue is the primary color for the logo and all other USAID-funded Feed the Future project communications materials. Green may be used when blue is not appropriate for a particular product design, or for serial publications that require differentiation. Orange may be used to highlight key text and should be used as a third preference after the blue or green options.

Use of secondary Feed the Future colors for the logo and/or underlying color banner is reserved for special circumstances, for example, to distinguish individual products that are part of a comprehensive suite or often paired but that may also be used as standalone materials. Use of the color logo (blue or green) on a white background is also an option, with the blue color logo preferred.

Keep in mind that electronic mediums render colors differently than print media. This means that colors will look different on your screen than they do in print. Please use the designated web colors (see HEX colors on page 20) for all online uses.

FONT

OVERVIEW

Font is one of the most important design elements. It is used to differentiate sections of information such as headers, text or captions.

Following standards for font ensures brand consistency across all printed and online materials. The font family was selected for clarity.

Gill Sans Bold is used in the logo. Where possible, Gill Sans should be used in professionally designed and printed communications.

Arial is the default font for desktop publishing.

As a general rule for shorter documents such as fact sheets and PowerPoints, Gill Sans Bold is used for headers, subheads and highlighted text; Gill Sans Regular or Light is used for body text; and Gill Sans Italic is used for captions. Adobe Garamond Regular, Bold, and Italic may be used for body text in longer documents or technical papers and reports.

When the Gill Sans font family is not a vailable, default to Arial. When the Adobe Garamond font family is not available, default to Times New Roman. The recommended font for various materials is included in material examples later in the manual.

OVERVIEW

Materials created and maintained at headquarters for dissemination to a br oad range of global audiences must display the Feed the Future logo prominently. Such materials include but are not limited to the Feed the Future website, progress reports, topic, or country-specific fact sheets, monthly newsletters, presentations, banners, and similar products. Additional use of the USAID logo or those of other U.S.

Government agencies contributing to the initiative will be decided on a case-by-case basis depending on the particular product, with decision authority on the branding of materials made at the determination of the USAID Bureau for Food Security Communications and Outreach team, based on a recommendation, when applicable, from respective CO/AOs, COR/AORs and in consultation with LPA. Annual reports will follow current practice to include all partner department/agency logos as shown on the progress report back cover (see page 28).

In most instances, the white Feed the Future logo may be placed prominently at the top left corner and layered over a color banner across the top of the page/publication. Spacing and color palette should comply with branding guidelines. Subsequent pages may streamline the banner across the top of the page. The Feed the Future website address (www.feedthefuture.gov) must be included in the publication on the final page or slide, and may be included on other pages as well. The web address should be aligned according to the design of the product and written using an approved font.

Use of secondary colors for the Feed the Future logo and/or underlying color banner is reserved for special circumstances. For example, they may be used to distinguish individual products that are part of a comprehensive suite or often paired but that may also be used as standalone materials. They may also be used in instances when the blue Feed the Future logo or banner would conflict with a specific product design.

Where possible, products in this case should reference Feed the Future interagency partners in text, and should include, on subsequent or back pages, interagency partner logos.

ACQUISITION INSTRUMENTS

FEED THE FUTURE AND USAID LOGO CO-BRANDING

Materials for Feed the Future activities conducted under acquisition instruments from USAID should include both the Feed the Future and USAID logos. A review team (COR, CO, BFS Communications & Outreach team) must approve exceptional cases where this requirement is not met.

Feed the Future and USAID co-branded products may include, for example, case studies or reports highlighting Feed the Future activities funded through a specific contract/acquisition instrument. This option also applies to related project websites (if the creation of a project site is approved by the USAID Website Governance Board).

The Feed the Future logo must be placed prominently at the top left corner of the page/publication. Do not include additional language or logos within the top area/banner. The USAID logo must be positioned at the lower left in accordance with USAID ADS 320 and the USAID Graphic Standards Manual reference to co-branding placement (see www.usaid.gov/branding/gsm section 1.1).

Feed the Future logo spacing and color palette must comply with specifications noted on pages 16 to 20. Subsequent pages may stream-line the banner across the top of the page, if used. The Feed the Future website address (www.feedthefuture.gov) must be included in the publication on the final page or slide, and may be included on other pages as well. The web address should be aligned according to the design of the product, and written using an approved font.

Use of secondary colors for the Feed the Future logo and/or underlying color banner is reserved for special circumstances. For example, they may be used to distinguish individual products that are part of a comprehensive suite or often paired but that may also be used as standalone materials. They may also be used in instances when the blue Feed the Future logo or banner would conflict with a specific product design.

Where possible, products that meet requirements for this case should reference Feed the Future interagency partners in text; contractors should be mentioned by name only in disclaimers and production notes to avoid confusion.

Do not create or use separate project/program logos.

Administrative materials (e.g., business cards, fax covers, internal memos, tax forms, customs forms, etc.) and advertisements should maintain the branding and identity of the contractor, and should not include the Feed the Future or USAID logo in any form, in accordance with ADS 320.

ACQUISITION INSTRUMENTS: PUBLICATION COVER EXAMPLE

The image to the right contains suggested spacing and logo placement.

For publication covers, the Feed the Future logo must be placed in the upper left area (following guidelines on background color use, size, and spacing).

Use ½ inch margins for content.

On co-branded communications for acquisition instruments, the lower left-most placement is preferred for the USAID logo. The Feed the Future logo at the top must be of at least equal size and prominence to the USAID logo.

No separate partner logos are allowed.

Do not create or use separate project/program logos.
