Universal Flag of Peace and Solidarity

[Flag of Universal Flag of Peace and Solidarity] by Ivan Sache, 12 August 2002

Jean Illel is a French poet and designer, currently President of the Club of Poets and Artists at UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization). On 10 December 1998, for the 50th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Illel presented the Universal Flag of Peace and Solidarity, a flag horizontally divided black-white-red-yellow.

I have not found any reference to this flag on the UNESCO website. Therefore, I believe Illel's flag has remained unofficial until now.
