Issued by the République Tunisienne in 1962, this 20 millimes stamp marks Tunisia’s participation in the global campaign against malaria (paludism). The design depicts a figure lifting a stylized globe featuring a mosquito at the center, symbolizing humanity’s united effort to eradicate the disease. The French inscription “Le Monde Uni Contre le Paludisme” (“The World United Against Malaria”) emphasizes the international cooperation led by the World Health Organization. Rendered in deep brown tones, the stamp reflects the health and humanitarian focus of early post-independence Tunisia.
