Sumba, Indonesia – November 2024 – An educational conference was held at the Don Bosco Vocational School in Sumba on 6 November: "Vocational education in the south-west of Sumba, towards golden Indonesia 2045". The conference is part of the Salesian school's project to increase the vocational training of young people in Sumba and improve their chances of finding a job. The project is funded by the German Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and the German Salesian NGO "Don Bosco Mondo". Work began as early as mid-2021, with the construction of the school building and the purchase of necessary furniture and equipment. At the same time, staff development was promoted to achieve the objectives set by the School. This conference sought to celebrate what has been achieved so far and, at the same time, establish a roadmap for the next ten years. The goal remains to help poor and marginalised young people, with an impact on improving collective well-being, in view of 2045 when the hundred years of Indonesian Independence will be celebrated.
