I-Witness
from Hinirang
i-Witness has never been triumphant in the different awardgiving bodies for nothing.
Having been dubbed as the longest-running documentary series in the Philippines, i-Witness started premiering in 1999. It is a Philippine television documentary show produced by GMA Network and GMA News TV, and is now hosted by multiawarded journalists: Sandra Aguinaldo, Kara David, Howie Severino, and Atom Araullo.

In 23 years of continuously producing thought-provoking stories on television, i-Witness has garnered more or less 30 awards and recognitions from prestigious local and international awardgiving organizations. This is because of the quality output that the show releases, as well as the brilliant people composing it.
The production team deserves to be given the honor for their commitment to their roles, as risking themselves going to the wilds or to hidden places takes a lot of courage. They even get along with the people they meet there, sharing candid conversations with them, while the natural sounds in the area are heard on the television.
With the issues and hidden treasures divulged on the show, i-Witness is home to information for the people and the government to show that there are so many issues that they usually overlook and need to give attention to.
