Issued by the State of Qatar on 24 October 1972 to commemorate United Nations Day, this attractive two-stamp set highlights global cooperation through education, science, and technology.

• The 2 Dirhams stamp features UNESCO, depicting archaeologists and surveyors at work beside ancient ruins — symbolizing cultural preservation and research.

• The 5 Dirhams stamp honors the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), illustrating a satellite and radar dish representing advances in communication and space technology.
  Both stamps bear the portrait of the Qatari ruler and the UN emblem, reflecting Qatar’s support for international progress and unity under the UN.
