Global Campaign Against Hunger - 40 millimes

This stamp testifies to Tunisia's commitment to the global campaign to combat hunger, a major international initiative of the 1960s supported by the FAO. The visual composition, centered on a dove carrying an ear of wheat above the globe, conveys a powerful message of universal solidarity and hope for a future free from want. In Tunisia, this ear of wheat particularly resonates with the heritage of a land once nicknamed the “granary of Rome”, highlighting the centrality of agriculture in the country's identity and economy. This program reflects the young Republic's desire to address the major humanitarian challenges of its time, affirming that lasting peace and human dignity necessarily require food security and the sharing of resources on a planetary scale.
