SEVENTEEN donated to UNESCO to improve educational environment worldwide. 

On May 29, Pledis Entertainment announced that SEVENTEEN made a donation to UNESCO on May 26, the 9th anniversary date of the group, to support education initiatives. 

The donation will be used to promote the #GoingTogether campaign co-launched by SEVENTEEN and UNESCO in August 2022, which aims at reducing educational disparities, as well as to organize the UNESCO International Forum on the Future of Education, which discusses the importance and transformation of education.

The International Forum, set to be held on December 2-4 at the Suwon Convention Center in Gyeonggi Province, will gather representatives from UNESCO member states, domestic and international education experts, educators, and students to draw a blueprint for sustainable future education.

The #GoingTogether campaign has supported various education initiatives globally. On last year's World Education Day (January 24), funds were raised from a portion of the world tour concert proceeds and sales of the 'Bongbongi Font' to support education in Malawi, Africa. Last April, campaign funds were used to establish two local learning centers for underserved communities in East Timor.

In particular, SEVENTEEN was allocated a special session at the 13th UNESCO Youth Forum held at the UNESCO headquarters in Paris, France, last November, where they delivered a speech and performed for about an hour.

Han Kyung-koo, Secretary-General of the Korean National Commission for UNESCO, expressed his gratitude towards SEVENTEEN's continuous support for the organization.

"We deeply appreciate SEVENTEEN's warm support since 2022. This donation is an example of their sincerity in contemplating a better future as 'global speakers.'"

Meanwhile, SEVENTEEN will launch a new unit consisting of Jeonghan and Wonwoo on June 17 with a single album "This Man". The group will then hold their 8th fan meeting 'SEVENTEEN in CARAT LAND' on July 23-24 at KSPO Dome in Seoul, Korea.
