To maintain professionalism and consistency across all presentations, BOPSS kindly asks presenters to follow the guidance below regarding the use of national flags in slides and posters:
Usage Guidelines
- Do not use national flags to represent personal identity or nationality
- Where required, use institutional logos rather than national flags to indicate affiliation
Important Considerations
- National flags can carry political or emotional significance, especially during periods of international tension or conflict and presenters are encouraged to prioritise institutional affiliation and clarity over national representation
Review and Updates
This guidance will be reviewed annually and updated as necessary to reflect evolving global sensitivities and participant feedback
