The symbol of International Women's Day is a purple, green, and white color scheme.
While there isn't a single, universally recognized symbol like a logo, these colors are often associated with the day and represent:
- Purple: Represents justice and dignity.
- Green: Represents hope and nature.
- White: Represents peace and purity.
These colors were first adopted by the Women's Social and Political Union (WSPU) in the early 20th century. They became associated with the women's suffrage movement and later with International Women's Day.
While the color scheme is the most common representation, other symbols are also used, such as:
- The figure of a woman: Often depicted in a powerful or empowering pose.
- Flowers: Specifically, mimosa flowers, which are often gifted on International Women's Day in some countries.
The color scheme and other symbols are a visual reminder of the ongoing fight for gender equality and the celebration of women's achievements.
