Our Logo

The Centre for Muslim Wellbeing is a community organisation that approaches the topic of Mental Health and Wellbeing from an Islamic perspective that is relevant to Muslims in Australia.

The Islamic perspective of Mental Health is a holistic approach that recognises the important role of community connections. The logo represents this community connection by taking a shape that represents a person with a healthy wellbeing, arms in the air and connecting with other similar individuals to create a ring (a centre) that draws its strength from the connections and creates a harmonious pattern, teal in colour.

As the individual shape rotates around the centre, they can also be seen as a M or a W, which is why one of each is highlighted in orange. The highlighted W is not connected which can be seen as joining the circle or letting go, an action that is catered for within the culture of CMW.
