Issued by the United Nations Postal Administration in 1988, this 25-cent stamp commemorates the 40th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (1948–1988). The design features a stylized golden flame — the universal emblem of human dignity, freedom, and enlightenment — resting on a symbolic base. The flame is framed by an ornate border of floral and geometric motifs, adding a sense of solemn beauty and global harmony. This issue celebrates the enduring global commitment to equality and justice under the UN’s human rights framework.
