Use of the Dove Symbol by Companies
Companies that make a significant contribution to peacekeeping measures within the framework of the GPP are granted the right to visibly use the official GPP peace symbol – a white dove with a color-marked beak – as a public sign of their contribution:
From an annual donation of at least 0.2% of company turnover: → Entitlement to use the dove symbol with a silver beak (“Silver Honor”)
From an annual donation of at least 0.5% of company turnover: → Entitlement to use the dove symbol with a golden beak (“Golden Honor”)
These companies may visibly display the respective symbol in their public communications – for example, on websites, publications, products, clothing, buttons, or at events.
In addition, they have preferential eligibility to participate in tenders and public procurement processes within the GPP.
Use by Citizens
Individuals who make a voluntary membership contribution of at least USD 1.00 per month or USD 12.00 per year are entitled to use the GPP peace symbol in its basic form as a visible sign of their personal involvement – for example, on clothing, social media, buttons, or page markers.
This usage represents their support for peace-promoting measures and their rejection of any form of aggression.
Use of Donations
Membership contributions are used exclusively for humanitarian purposes, in particular for:
the provision of food,
school and vocational training programs
in GPP member states with an average per capita income of less than USD 400 that have agreed to the establishment of SEZs.
