(ANS – Les Abymes) – The Salesians of Don Bosco have been in the French overseas department of Guadeloupe since September 2020, where they manage a parish and a social action project. The latter, due to its full expansion, is moving towards the need to have its own and larger structures, which will lead in the coming months to the construction of a "Lakou Bosco Village": a project at the service of young people and families, especially those most in need, in Guadeloupe.
