The organisers announced that the eight-hour globally streamed event will help uplift local and regional charities that provide food, shelter, and healthcare to those that need help most.

They added that it would also feature interviews with experts from WHO as well as stories of frontline healthcare workers from around the world.

One World Together at Home is a broad global entertainment special to support the World Health Organization and the global fight to end COVID-19 through artistes who share music with their fans for a purpose.

It was also gathered that the event is aimed at educating and informing millions of people about the World Health Organisation’s critical efforts to prevent, detect and respond to the COVID-19 pandemic.
