Networking Projects

Networking is an enriching experience – it is a challenge but it is rewarding. One of the aims of the World Confederation of Past Pupils of Don Bosco is to promote the networking of projects on a world, regional, and national level. The Maltese National Federation has been active in promoting networking projects both on a European and National level.

Creating networks is a form of building unity within an organisation, it is a way of learning from each other, and it consolidates the experiences of the different sectors and cultures. Networking is a way of showing support and assistance to each other both from an organisational level and also on a personal level. In this section, you will find some of the networking projects which the Past Pupils and Friends of Don Bosco in Malta have either led or participated in.
