The Rainbow Flag: a symbol of peace around the world

If the rainbow flag is often associated with the LGBT community and the Pride march against homophobia, we must not forget that its precursor was the first rainbow flag Peace. This flag was adopted for the first time at the Perugia Peace March in Italy in 1962 to denounce the war in Iraq. Known as the 'Bandiera della pace', which simply translates as the flag of peace, this flag included seven horizontal stripes and the word Pace (peace in Italian).

The Perugia Peace March is now held every two years and thousands of citizens around the world participate each year. This banner has been taken up all over the world and is carried with the word 'pace' translated into the language of the country - Peace in English, paix in French or paz in Spanish. It has been used in marches against the Vietnam War and against nuclear bombing.

The flag designed by activist Gilbert Baker as a symbol of identity for the LGBT community is very similar to the peace flag.

If the flag of the Lesbian, Gay, Bi, and Transgender community has six horizontal stripes, the flag of peace has seven stripes purple - royal blue - turquoise - green - yellow - orange - red.

Flags - a symbol of peace

Throughout history, many flags have had the mission to symbolize peace. Did you know that the white flag is an international symbol of peace? Any entity that decides to raise the white flag commits itself to be neutral in a conflict, to cease hostilities and not to engage in acts of war. This flag is one of the official symbols of peace and has been recognized since 1899 by the Hague Convention.

The symbol ☮ is considered as a generic emblem of pacifism around the world since created in 1958 by Gerald Holtom as part of a 1958 march against Nuclear armament in Trafalgar square. The graphic designer who created this symbol was inspired by the semaphore signs for 'N' (nuclear) and 'D' (“Desarment”). It gained more popularity when it was taken up by the hippies during the demonstrations against the Vietnam war where it was displayed on the flags and clothing of the demonstrators. After the 2015 attacks, it was modified to look like an Eiffel Tower in a black circle. This improvised symbol of France was affixed to the French national emblem the blue-white-red tricolour flag.
