"Formulier" is a 1948 document created by W. van 't Rood-Gerth van Wijk, a Dutch activist who served as a secretary for the "Gemeenschappelijke Actie van Nederlandse Vrouwen" (Joint Action of Dutch Women). The document features an official letter from the organization, appealing to readers to distribute information about the plight of Dutch prisoners in the Indonesian Republic of Djocja. This piece is a powerful example of Dutch activism in the post-war period, highlighting the human impact of the Indonesian Revolution. The small size of the document, measuring 19.7 cm in length and 14.1 cm in width, suggests its potential role as a flyer or newsletter distributed among a community.
