Historical context: previously unrecorded Cold War era poster design related to conference of The International Union of Students in Beirut in 1982 with iconic motto often used on posters of IUS: "Education: a right, not a privilege".
The International Union of Students was founded in Prague on August 27, 1946.
Student organizations from 62 countries participated in its founding envisioning a more inclusive successor to the short lived 1941-1944 International Council of Students (also known as the International Students' Council) which was set up on the initiative of the British National Union of Students to maintain open lines of communication with student organizations in allied countries during World War II.
The IUS was the umbrella organization for 155 such students' organizations across 112 countries and territories representing approximately 25 million students.
This was recognized by the United Nations granting the IUS a consultative status in UNESCO.
The primary aim of the IUS was to defend the rights and interests of students to promote improvement in their welfare and standard of education and to prepare them for their tasks as democratic citizens.
It collapsed in the 2000s due to an unreliable membership system and a lack of grassroots engagement (Wiki).
