The flag aimed at representing all persons with disabilities was inscribed 
  in July 2017 on the (Spanish) Register of Intellectual Property and presented 
  to the UN on 3 December 2017, the International Day of Persons with 
  Disabilities. The flag is horizontally divided gold-silver-bronze. The three 
  noble ores represent the three categories of disability: physical, psychic, 
  and sensory. The three colors also refer to the medals used in sports 
  competitions.
The flag was designed by Eros Recio, from Valencia, the first 
  professional dancer with Down syndrome.
