iO and Amnesty International make themselves heard for Write-them-VRIJdag  

Write-them-VRIJdag, Amnesty International's annual letter-writing marathon, will take place on Friday, 2 February 2024. Traditionally, Amnesty International encourages schools to help change people's lives at the beginning of the new school year. Using the 'Free Broadcasting Time' competition organised by VRT, Amnesty International is now calling everyone to pick up their paper and pens. 

On Write-them-VRIJdag, hundreds of schools throughout Belgium become one enormous writing team for human rights. More than 100,000 students write letters for people who are unjustly imprisoned or experience other injustices. 

The radio spot convinced the VRT jury that examines NGO submissions to determine which deserves a package of free airtime on radio or TV every year. With this creation, iO is one of the laureates of Amnesty International. 

The radio spot runs from 11 to 15 September on Radio 1, Radio 2, Klara, Studio Brussel and MNM.
