In a proud celebration of 70 years of excellence in education, Woosong University held a memorable event on October 16, unveiling the new “Woosong Global Park” as a lasting symbol of their commitment to cultural exchange and international unity. The garden, located on Woosong’s main campus, beautifully embodies Woosong’s dedication to Sustainable Development, by fostering an inclusive environment where students from all over the world feel represented and valued. This aligns with SDG 10: Reduced Inequalities, ensuring a diverse and inclusive community, and SDG 4: Quality Education, which promotes inclusive education for all.

A Garden that Blooms with Diversity

The “Woosong Global Park” is a unique space that features 60 flowers, each chosen to represent the rich cultural diversity of our student body from 87 different countries. This garden is more than a beautiful landscape; it is a testament to Woosong’s mission of nurturing global citizens who are conscious of the world around them. Each flower stands as a symbol of the unique perspectives our students bring to the campus, creating a tapestry of cultural learning and growth. By creating spaces like this garden, Woosong and SolBridge reaffirm their commitment to inclusivity, diversity, and understanding—core values that align closely with SDG 16: Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions and SDG 10: Reduced Inequalities.

Honoring Dedication and Service

Alongside the inauguration of the Woosong Global Park, Woosong celebrated the dedication of our faculty and staff members, who have contributed immensely to Woosong’s journey over the past seven decades. Their commitment to quality education has been instrumental in shaping an academic environment that champions equality and accessibility for all. This recognition not only honors their service but also reinforces the vital role of educators in providing inclusive and equitable education for all, supporting SDG 4: Quality Education.
