« Je voudrais encourager tous les représentants des médias en Afrique et en Asie à postuler ensemble pour les Prix de Reconnaissance des Médias « Restez à la Maison » pour marquer la « Journée Mondiale de la Santé ». Nous avons quatre catégories : Pays Anglophones, Francophones, Lusophones (portugais), Arabophones. Ce Prix de Reconnaissance des Médias encouragera les médias à sensibiliser nos communautés. La sensibilisation au coronavirus dans nos communautés contribuera à soutenir les agents de santé qui sont à l'avant-garde de la réponse au COVID-19 - en fournissant des traitements et des soins respectueux de haute qualité, elle renforcera également leurs efforts considérables pour mener un dialogue communautaire afin de répondre aux craintes et aux questions des populations. Nos cœurs et nos pensées les accompagnent. »
