CCDI Logo - Extended.png

For almost 10 years, the Canadian Centre for Diversity and Inclusion has helped organizations effectively address the full picture of diversity, equity and inclusion within the workplace. Times change and as our goals become more challenging, we adapt to improve and offer the best service to our partners and their employees. It is with great pride that we unveil our new brand identity.


CCDI’s logo is a collection of abstract shapes that represent the organic and ongoing progress made where humanitarian needs, issues and approaches change and adapt with time.


Called “The Inclusive Sphere”, the logo icon depicts ideas of inclusivity and diversity by employing a sphere as a symbol of inclusion and togetherness, while the variety of colours and shapes imply diversity.
