NDHR Logo Explanation

The four people symbolize the four races and/or the four age groups. but in spirit, because when we do see past the colour we are all spirits holding hands to move forward in healing and reconciliation. The colour purple in many cultures also represents “healing“.

We walk on green grass to symbolize growth. The water is to nurture the growth and to symbolize that Mother Earth becomes richer with watering as we too become healthier when we feel accepted. The sun symbolizes the vision we all share of healing and reconciliation through education and building understanding.
