This set of five stamps commemorates Tanzania's first Five-Year Plan for Economic and Social Development. The designs symbolically represent key sectors targeted for growth: agriculture (sisal), industry (textiles), infrastructure (hydroelectric power), education (literacy), and national unity, all overlaid on a map of the country.

Issued under President Julius Nyerere, this set reflects the nation's post-independence focus on self-reliance and socialist development principles, known as Ujamaa, aiming to build a modern, equitable society.
