1992 Science and Technology for Development
These stamps honor the first meeting of the Commission on Science and Technology for Development, which took place in April 1993. The commission replaced the Intergovermentla Committee on Science and Technology for Develpment. A subsidiary of the Economic and Social Council, the commission gathers information on the use of technology to aid in improving economies and societies around the world.
Food production is an area in which the UN is using science and technology. Food sufficiency is a critical problem in most developing countries. Natural disasters and civil wars have often led to severe strain on available food resources. The U.N.’s science and technology activities have supported research to develop hardy strains of staples and withstand harsh environmental conditions.
