This stamp marks Sudan's active participation in the United Nations-sponsored World Refugee Year on April 7, 1960, highlighting the young nation's commitment to international humanitarian institutions and regional solidarity. The powerful allegorical illustration centers on a displaced father carrying his belongings while comforting his children, positioned over a symbolic tree trunk that branches out into a protective halo of stylized leaves above and deep roots below.
