Guest programmes

Radio 1 regularly allocates a limited amount of airtime for the transmission of so-called "guest programmes": that is to say, programmes produced by associations and organizations representing faith and other socio-philosophical communities recognized by the Flemish Government as having the right to make such broadcasts. At the present time (February 2014) these are:

• Centraal Israëlitisch Consistorie van België – representing Belgian Judaism
• Evangelische Radio en Televisie Omroep – Evangelical Christian broadcaster
• Gezinsbond – defending the interests of the family
• Humanistisch-Vrijzinnige Vereniging – representing secularism and free thought
