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 raise awareness of global hunger and promote long-term solutions to food insecurity. The campaign encouraged countries around the world to support agricultural development, improve nutrition, and increase public understanding of the challenges faced by populations affected by hunger.

By participating in the campaign through a commemorative stamp issue, Sudan demonstrated its support for international efforts to combat hunger and promote economic and social development. The issue emphasized the importance of agricultural productivity, food self-sufficiency, and international cooperation in improving living conditions and ensuring a more secure future for communities around the world.
