18 December 2008: A radio marathon for International Migrants Day
16-12-2008 (Paris)
For the third consecutive year, on 18 December 2008, Radio 18-12 will be
organizing a global radio marathon with the support of UNESCO, on the
occasion of International Migrants Day.
Groups of migrants and radios from over the world will be invited to produce,
broadcast and share programmes to celebrate achievements and highlight the
struggles of migrants around the world.
Since 2000, the international community has indeed chosen 18 December as
International Migrants Day in order to enhance their contribution to the
development of their host countries and homelands, to promote their rights and
to ensure their opinions are heard.
In this perspective, the first edition of a huge radio marathon was organized
in 2006 by Radio 18-12 with the support of UNESCO. It gathered together more
than 50 radio stations that broadcasted in more than 25 countries.
In 2007, the event had more impact with the participation of 152 radio stations
located in 34 countries and 4 continents.
For the 2008 edition, Radio 18-12 calls on even more countries, radios,
migrants organizations and solidarity groups from over the world to
participate in this initiative to increase the momentum.
