Exercising intercultural communication for the community

During the Holy Week period, the three existing television channels in the city of Bilwi came together to live stream all the celebrations that the Catholic Church traditionally performs this season. Because of COVID-19, the Diocese of Puerto Cabezas decided to close the doors of the temple, which is why Catholic parishioners had the opportunity to see masses through the Channel 5 and Channel 22 signal, making use of transmission equipment.
