How would you design a logo for Tanzania’s Fifa World Cup 2018?

Sofia Valvi a Greek student was asked to create a logo and a poster for a fictional world cup, that would take place in a country of her choice. She chose Tanzania as the host for the 2018 Fifa World Cup.

Tanzania is a wonderful country, with amazing landscapes, full of wildlife (with at-least 5 wildlife parks), and home country -along with Kenya- of the Maasai tribe.
The final logo is inspired by a beaded necklace of a Maasai warrior, which I came across while researching.
The colors used, are commonly used for their beadings, and also symbolize the warmth of this beautiful country, and its breathtaking coastlines.
