This stamp commemorates the fiftieth anniversary of the martyrdom of Farhat Hached (1952-2002), leading figure in the struggle for independence and founder of the Tunisian General Labor Union (UGTT). The illustration superimposes the smiling portrait of the union leader on the national flag and the logo of the labor organization (representing a handshake), symbolizing the unwavering unity between the social movement and the fight for national sovereignty. This institutional tribute underlines the importance of Hached in the Tunisian collective memory as an icon of patriotism, sacrifice and social justice.
