Description
Complementing the theme of food sovereignty, this second triangular stamp adopts a more symbolic graphic style, with clasped hands protecting ears of wheat under an architectural vault. This visual underlines the sacred and collective dimension of the earth, as well as the responsibility to protect natural resources against industrial standardization. The program reaffirms the unwavering link between Tunisian rural identity and the preservation of cultivated biodiversity, presenting peasant seeds as a national treasure to be transmitted to future generations.
