The COVID-19 Influencers Social Media Awards shined a spotlight on an invaluable array of social media users – all influencers in their own context – recognizing the incredible contributions they made, and continue to make, to the collective understanding of the pandemic and responses around the world.
AFEW International was a co-host of the awards in Eastern Europe and Central Asia. Yulia Komo, Director of Programmes and Public Affairs at AFEW International: “Social media is a viral source to spread information. Our role is to ensure that our virus – positive information – spreads faster than the actual COVID or other viruses so people are not scared.”
