Through music, entertainment and impact, the global live-cast will celebrate those who risk their own health to safeguard everyone else’s.”
The One World special is a spin-off of sorts of the “Together at Home” series Global Citizen has been running online for the past several weeks. The campaign has raised support for relief efforts with at-home concerts from artists like Legend, Martin, Niall Horan, Charlie Puth and Common. So far, Global Citizen has raised over $30 million for the WHO’s coronavirus response efforts.
One World: Together at Home will air on ABC, NBC, ViacomCBS Networks, iHeart Media and Bell Media. A digital livestream will begin at 2 p.m. ET and will be available on various platforms including Amazon Prime Video, Apple, Facebook, Instagram, TIDAL, Twitch, Twitter and YouTube.
The brand and corporate sponsors for the One World broadcast who have supported the COVID-19 Solidarity Response for WHO, include, Analog Devices, Cisco, Citi, The Coca-Cola Company, GlaxoSmithKline, IBM, Johnson & Johnson, PepsiCo, Procter & Gamble, State Farm, Target, Teneo, Verizon, Vodafone and WW International, Inc.
