Sadly I don't think the tree or giraffe are working. Can I see some versions of
#31 that put APTA in a bolder and cleaner, more professional font like in
#34. Maybe consider changing the horizontal lines on the top to be the longer name "association for the...". Then add a bit more color along the lines of entry 13. The continent itself should have some texture to it like in 34, just not concentric circles that look like a bullseye.
Any way to try
#95 where the negative space in the P is a subtle shape of Africa?
