In 2019, Taiwan became the first country in Asia to legalize same-sex marriage, a milestone that established its reputation as one of the most LGBTQ+ friendly countries in Asia. Since its first Pride parade in 2003, Taiwan’s annual Pride celebration has grown exponentially—to the point that it is now among the largest in East Asia. To this day, activists and allies in Taiwan continue to advocate for LGBTQ+ rights across platforms.One such organizer is the Taiwan Equality Campaign 彩虹平權大平台, a coalition of women’s rights and LGBTQ+ rights organizations focused on advocating for LGBTQ+ rights in Taiwan. They designed this rainbow flag, which has been flown in pride events worldwide from Taiwan to New York. Get one to display in your home or to carry at a Pride parade near you.
