FAO “Freedom from Hunger” campaign- 45 millieme

Issued in 1963, this stamp commemorates the Freedom from Hunger Campaign, an international initiative launched by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations to combat hunger, malnutrition, and food insecurity around the world. The campaign encouraged nations to improve agricultural production, water management, rural development, and nutrition while raising public awareness of the global challenge of ensuring adequate food supplies for growing populations.

By issuing this commemorative stamp, the United Kingdom of Libya demonstrated its support for international efforts to improve food security and promote agricultural development. The issue highlighted the importance of sustainable use of natural resources, increased food production, and international cooperation in addressing hunger, while emphasizing the role of agriculture in economic progress and the well-being of communities.
