This stamp was issued in support of the international campaign "World United Against Malaria", a global initiative led by the World Health Organization (WHO) to combat one of the most widespread and deadly infectious diseases of the twentieth century. During the 1950s and 1960s, malaria remained a major public health challenge across large parts of Africa, Asia, and Latin America, affecting millions of people each year.

Somalia's participation in the campaign demonstrated its commitment to improving public health, reducing disease transmission, and supporting international efforts aimed at malaria eradication.
