JEA flag

[JEA flag] by Jorge Candeias, 23 Dec 2001

I found the site of the Juventude Ecologista de Angola (Ecologist Youth of Angola - JEA). The site includes, among other things, a drawing of the flag of what seems to be more a Luandese club than a nation-wide movement.
The flag is a LOB, white with a specifically designed symbol in the centre. It is to be noted that this symbol is *not* the group's logo, but the site gives no explanation for this. Indeed, the site is very short on explanations about the flag: all it says is that the flag was designed by Hugo Fernandes.
The symbolism is pretty obvious and also quite adecuate: the african hand holds a leaf, also protected by a rainbow. The idea that is expressed is one of balance between man and nature.
The site includes, following the link "símbolos", more info about the other symbols of the movement, in portuguese.

Each leaf has its own significance:
Red: earth
Blue: water
Green: vegetation
