Peace Symbol - History, Meaning, and Modern Use #125803 (License: Personal Use)

This iconic symbol, originally designed in 1958 for the British nuclear disarmament movement, combines the semaphore signals for 'N' and 'D' (Nuclear Disarmament) within a circle. Its clean, geometric form has transcended its origins to become a globally recognized icon for peace, activism, and social justice across generations and cultures.

Used on protest signs, apparel, digital campaigns, and educational materials; ideal for pages about pacifism, history of activism, or symbolic communication-users seek understanding, visual assets, or cultural context.
