In 2021, the Coordination of the Graduate Program in Ecology decided to improve communication with course members and the general public, and this process began with the creation of a visual identity for the program and the development of this new website.

The visual identity was created thinking of Ecology as a “study of relationships”, and consequently referring to connections between organisms. Very different appearing environments were represented, such as aquatic and terrestrial with a connection between them in a way typically used by ecology studies, mainly those with interactions in networks. All versions of the logo were presented to the program’s internal community and the final identity was a collective choice!
