On 11 December, the UN Postal Administration (UNPA) issued special event stamps to commemorate the seventy-fifth anniversary of the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF).
The theme of the anniversary is Reimagine the Future for Every Child.
The text on the stamp sheet reads:
For 75 years, UNICEF has been an unstoppable force for change in children’s lives. From short-term relief to long-term development programmes, we have been working tirelessly to save children’s lives, protect their rights and secure their futures.
The sheet of 10 stamps is in the denomination of $1.30.
From left to right column, top to bottom, the following unique themes are displayed: health, mental health, gender, climate, nutrition, disability, water sanitation hygiene, vaccination, humanitarian response, and education.
The stamp sheet is the work of the UNICEF Brand Team in New York:
