Hit-maker SEVENTEEN joined hands with UNESCO Korea for #GoingTogether, a global campaign to promote awareness about education among youth, on August 2, 2022. With the help of the group’s unparalleled influence across the globe, the K-pop act will encourage the youth to think about their future more seriously.
The campaign, Going Together, is a part of KNCU’s (Korean National Commission for UNESCO) #EducationCanChange_ project. This project falls under their global Futures of Education initiative.
The 13-member act will be using their global influence to spread more positivity across the world.
SEVENTEEN launches global education campaign #GoingTogether with UNESCO Korea
SEVENTEEN has always advocated education, even if from their savage replies to CARATs on Weverse. The group has now taken a step forward as global superstars. The Face the Sun singers joined hands with UNESCO Korea for a meaningful campaign.
Through #GoingTogether, the 13 members will be raising awareness, promoting youth education, and encouraging youth to participate in various programs across the globe. The title of the campaign also goes in tandem with their popular variety series Going Seventeen.
Speaking about the global campaign, the group said:
“With the aim of ‘Going Together,’ we will together reimagine the futures of education and work to provide more diverse educational opportunities as ‘TEAM SVT’. We hope the campaign will bring hope for a better future and greater dreams for children worldwide.”
Having representatives with greater influence is one of the ways society can pay attention to a cause. The Secretary General of KCNU, Mr. Han Kyung-ho, talked about how working with the Attacca group will help them address the important problem of educational inequality. He said:
“We are honored to work together with SEVENTEEN on this new campaign to find new ways to address the global problem of educational inequality and build a better future for children worldwide.”
Additionally, a part of the revenue from the group’s ongoing world tour, BE THE SUN, will go towards the #GoingTogether global campaign too. The concert tour began on June 25 and 26, 2022, in Seoul. Beginning August 10, 2022, the group will tour North America, performing in 12 cities. They will then make their way to Southeast Asia and Japan.
The launch of the #GoingTogether campaign also brings forward the meaningful donation the Face the Sun creators made on their seventh debut anniversary this year. The funds, though undisclosed, will be used towards the education of underprivileged Asian and African children.
