Finally, the World President of Past Pupils shared, "The challenge we have as Past Pupils and friends of Don Bosco is to acknowledge that we must change to respond to today's reality.  We must learn from our past, discern the present, and form the future.  We will begin to walk together to renew our organization and become an active and relevant movement in today's world. In its strategic plan, the Presidency has proposed that an Extraordinary World Assembly be held in 2024 to define our vision for today and update our bylaws. I invite everyone to participate in this journey so that together we can meet the challenge and confirm our relevance and contribution to the society we live in today." The participants, after presenting their activities, agreed to meet in attendance on 23 June 2023 in Turin-Valdocco.
