Overview
This badge was made by staff of Wellington City Libraries to give away at the LGBTQI+ event Out in the Park in Wellington on 22 February 2020.
The badge is based on the white, pink and light blue colours of the Transgender Pride flag which was designed by Monica Helms in 1999. Blue represents male-identifying individuals, pink represents female-identifying individuals, and white represents people who are intersex, transitioning, non-binary, or having an undefined gender.
