ORANGE SEAL: A SYMBOL OF COMMITMENT AND ACTION
THE MEANING OF ORANGE SEAL
Orange Seal is more than just a certification; it represents a global movement towards gender equality and sustainable development. Inspired by the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goal 5 on Gender Equality, Orange Seal signifies a commitment to empowering women, girls, and the LGBTQIA+ community.
This certification goes beyond being a mere symbol; it represents a mindset and a movement promoting inclusion and meaningful progress for all.
Why Orange?
The color orange was chosen not only for its aesthetic appeal but also for its profound meaning. Orange symbolizes unity, shared purpose, and social progress. It transcends boundaries of race, ethnicity, and belief, embodying a commitment to not just support change, but to be the change.
