TGVT LOGO
The Global Village Tour (TGVT)
logo represents the four teams of vehicles that will traverse
the globe delivering the prestigious medallions and the Hewlett
Packard Global Computer-1(HPGC-1) to the up to 500,000 specially selected
representatives of the global villages.
The center
part of this logo shows the entire 7 continents that make up
this globe and also represents the operational limitation of
the 4 teams. As such,
medallions and computers are scheduled to be delivered to communities
in Antarctica as well. The
7 continents are named in the ring in alphabetical order.
The Hummers, also called HumVees
were selected as the initial delivery vehicle for their durability
and as a contrast to the symbols that they have represented
in the past.
‘HumVees’ have represented
vehicles of war, while the ‘Hummers’, have been displayed
as toys for the rich.
Now, these very capable vehicles
will become the ‘Envoys of Peace’, helping to bring the
world together, ‘In peace and understanding’.
The secondary vehicles
utilized will be the very capable Land Rovers.
These are also vehicles that are seen all over the world
and have been recognized for their ability to transverse any
area of the globe.
All team members of The Global
Village Tour(TGVT) teams and only the direct supporting
operational units will wear this patch.
Special guest joining the teams for
longer than three days will receive patches with a slight variation
of this one, specially denoting them as a guest of a TGVT
operation.

EV2K LOGO
The
EarthVisions 2K (EV2K) logo is the logo patch for the Headquarters

includes the 7 continents of the globe and the listing of these
continents in the surrounding ring.

operations with it’s many communications satellites overhead.
The satellites represent the ability of the EV2K operation

The medallion is ringed with the colors of the rainbow,
representing the flag colors of the 195 sovereign villages (nations
of the world), 61 dependent villages as well as the 6 disputed
territories.
Within
the colored rings are images of children holding hands together
representing their unity and strength and the power of children
united.
The inside
image of two children holding hands reinforces the images of
the outer ring. The
words on the bottom indicate that the holder of this medallion
represents a global village.
BACK
OF THE MEDALLION
Each
medallion is personalized to that of the individual recipient. The top indicates the approximate date of the
presentation, the global village that the child represents (each
village is listed alphabetically in most world references),
and the name of the recipient.
The center
of the medallion is inscribed with the mission statement which
denotes the purpose of the program and their goal in being a
part of it. It also states the responsibilities of the
recipient.
Upon accepting
this coveted medallion, the youth will recite this to all who
are in attendance;
"In
peace and understanding, we accept the responsibility and
determine the future of this globe and these global
villages..... together."
The bottom
is the 6 character access key that is linked to that computer.
It recognizes the user and allows that youth access to
the restricted INPUT areas on the site.
These input areas allow them to provide
their recommendations on world issues and to directly communicate
with other youth around the world in discussing global issues.

"In
our way of life, in our government, with every decision we make,
we must always keep in mind 'The Seventh Generation to come'.
It's our job to see that the people coming ahead, the generations
still
unborn, have a world no worse than ours -- and hopefully better.
When we walk upon Mother Earth we always plant our feet carefully
because we know the faces of our future generations are looking
up at us from beneath the ground.
We must never forget them."
