The flag of the institute, as shown graphically and described on the website of the institute, is green with a white ascending diagonal stripe and the emblem of the institute in the middle (represented as a white disk on the drawing but explicitely mentioned in the description). Green symbolizes hope and white the pacific common life. The orientation of the stripe represents the constant permanent and institutional improvement.
The emblem of the institute has a green border charged with the three pillars of the institute, in white letters: "AUTONOMÍA" (left), "PARTICIPACIÓN" (right), and "CREATIVIDAD" (top), the flag of Bogotá (horizontally divided yellow-red, without the coat of arms), and the flag of the institute. The shield is blue, divided into three parts by two green branches of laurel emerging from a single stem, representing the fulfillment of the objectives proposed in the institute. Above the branches are two open hands, symbolizing unity and strength, on the left, a book, symbolizing science, on the right a computer, representing access to knowledge through technology, and under the stem the five Olympic rings, symbolizing sociability, fraternity, equity, solidarity and diversity.
