Sergey Kosenko, widely known as Mr. Thank You, one of the world’s most influential digital creators with over 67 million followers and 2 billion monthly views, continues his mission to turn social influence into global social impact. In May, Kosenko was invited to speak at UNESCO headquarters in Paris during the organization’s flagship “Masterclass Against Racism and Discrimination.”His appearance marks the beginning of a collaborative initiative between Kosenko and UNESCO aimed at promoting emotional intelligence, storytelling, and youth empowerment worldwide.
A Voice of Influence at UNESCO
During his keynote, Kosenko addressed international educators, diplomats, and youth advocates with a clear and timely message: “Human connection is the most valuable currency we possess.” Drawing on personal experiences and the influence of his family—his wife, singer Sasha Belair, and their son Leo—he spoke about the root causes of racism and division.
“Racism and discrimination often stem from inner emptiness, fear, or pain,” he stated. “When we are filled with negativity, we focus on our differences. But when we are filled with love, we see each other through unity.”
Kosenko emphasized the importance of beginning with compassion at home.
“My family is my foundation. When I am grounded in love, I am able to share it with the world. I believe global peace begins with protecting and nurturing those closest to us.”
Inspired by his message and global influence, UNESCO is currently in discussions with Kosenko on a joint youth education programfocused on integrating emotional development and purposeful digital expression into modern curricula. The initiative aims to equip young people with the tools to become conscious, connected leaders.
“This generation doesn’t just consume content—they create meaning,” Kosenko said. “I want every young person to know: your voice matters, your story matters, and your actions—when rooted in purpose—can shape the future.”
From Viral Reach to Real-World Change
Kosenko’s online presence is best known for emotionally charged storytelling, viral acts of kindness, and philanthropic campaigns. But behind the content lies a deeper mission: fostering emotional wellness and social responsibility. Through projects such as Reels Royce, Awakening, and the Mr. Thank You Foundation, he provides frameworks for turning empathy into action and influence into lasting change.
UNESCO’s engagement with Kosenko reflects a broader global recognition of digital creators as cultural ambassadors—figures capable of bridging divides and driving awareness on an international scale.
A Purpose-Driven Global Citizen
In addition to his media initiatives, Kosenko is a partner in Mr. Eight Development, a leading luxury real estate firm in the UAE. His business efforts are closely aligned with his philanthropic work, including the Giving Family Project and participation in international charity events—most recently, a football match in Monaco under the patronage of Prince Albert II.
Kosenko currently resides between Dubai and Los Angeles with his wife and son, embodying the values of a new generation of socially conscious entrepreneurs. His work reflects the progressive spirit of the UAE’s Vision 2030, as well as UNESCO’s mission to promote peace through education, culture, and human connection.
