The logo
Walking together towards a disarmed and disarming peace
From 25 to 27 November 2026, the joint UISG–USG Assembly will bring together superiors general — women and men — from around the world. The logo visually translates its theme: "Walking together towards a disarmed and disarming peace".
The globe evokes belonging to one human family; the lines that cross it evoke the relationships between peoples and cultures. The five figures in movement express a shared journey, grounded in listening and shared responsibility. They thus recall consecrated life's commitment to be a presence of fraternity and reconciliation in the world.
The olive branches embrace the composition as a sign of peace and care, while the shades from blue to green evoke openness, dialogue and hope.
Forms and colours express a peace born of encounter, nourished in fraternity and growing through relationships able to disarm fear and open paths of reconciliation. More than a symbol, the logo is an invitation to walk together towards a truly disarmed and disarming peace.
