Deutsche Welle recently added a new partner in India by signing a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU). As part of the partnership, “Gyan Vani FM” will broadcast DW-Radio programming in Hindi, Urdu, Bengali and English over campus radio at 29 associated universities. In addition, “Tomorrow Today”, the science magazine from DW-TV, will be integrated into the schedule from “Gyan Darshan”, an educational channel that operates nationwide via satellite and cable.
In return, Deutsche Welle has agreed to support IGNOU with training courses for community radio operators and journalists. Germany’s international broadcaster will oversee several intensive courses per year at the School of New Media Studies with a focus on New Media Production, Science Journalism, Train the Trainer and other subjects according to IGNOU’s needs and DW-Akadamie’s capacities.
IGNOU is the public distance-learning university, which is based in Delhi and operates five television stations and 29 campus radio stations (FM) in the most important universities in India. It offers basic and general education as well as professional training and a degree program in engineering.

Well, the logo that I used is still on the Deutsche Welle website on a page that was last updated in April 2007. It’s also on the DW Wikipedia page. I didn’t know the logos had been changed recently. I was under the impression that was the corporate logo, and the others are the logos of the radio and TV services respectively. There’s also a different one for the website. But since the only reason for including the logo was to brighten up the page, I have adopted the policy that has served me well for 34 years: “If in doubt, leave it out.”

Wikipedia is not a reliable source
Like more organisations it takes a while before ALL pages are updated with new logos….also RNW has has this situation!
On Deutsche Welle TV the old logo has not been seen since a while!
PS> where did you see the old logo of DW on their site?

David, since you ask: http://www.dw-world.de/dw/0,2142,9101,00.html and the page it links to. But that doesn’t mean it’s current, of course

Logo on a microphone on an not updated page where in fact there is also the new logo….wouldn’t consider this as an official logo but rather as outdated logo
