Encyclopedic overview
The peace symbol (☮) was designed by Gerald Holtom in 1958, displaying the letters N and D in flag semaphore, and is the official symbol of the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament.
Nuclear disarmament is the act of reducing or eliminating nuclear weapons. Its end state can also be a nuclear-weapons-free world, in which nuclear weapons are completely eliminated. The term denuclearization is also used to describe the process leading to complete nuclear disarmament.
