The meaning behind our logo
Our logo features a kiwi bird holding a Turkish flag, with a
pikorua entwined in the wing.This logo represents the strong connection between Türkiye and New Zealand, as well as the merging of cultural symbols from both nations. The kiwi bird, a symbol of New Zealand, shows the pride of the Turkish
community living in New Zealand for their adopted country, while still acknowledging their connection to Türkiye through the use of the Turkish flag and the Pikorua symbol. We are excited to use this logo to represent our organization and its values of inclusivity, diversity, and respect for all cultures.
