To create the new flag, Fondation Émergence - which created IDAHOBIT in Quebec in 2003 - collected the testimonies of LGBTQ+ activists who have experienced violence.
To mark this year’s campaign, Canadian non-profit Fondation Émergence has reimagined the Pride flag with images of real wounds and bruises sustained by victims of transphobic and homophic hate crimes. Today is the International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, and Transphobia (IDAHOBIT).
