(ANS – Paris) – After the days of the Paris 2024 Olympics, when the eyes of the world were fixed on Paris to observe the performances of thousands of athletes from all countries and nations, Salesian Fr Jean-François Meurs, belonging to the Saint Francis de Sales Province of France-Southern Belgium (FRB), helps us to investigate the role of sport, play and physical activity according to Don Bosco.

(ANS - New Rochelle) – “Salesian Missions”, the U.S. development arm of the Salesians of Don Bosco, joins humanitarian organizations and countries around the globe in recognizing International Youth Day. Celebrated each year on Aug. 12, International Youth Day was established by the United Nations to raise awareness of issues affecting young people around the world.

(ANS - Rome) - In today's world, an increasingly active and incisive role is played by the organisations of the so-called Third Sector (considering governments and businesses as the first two). And it is precisely on the non-governmental organisations that the missionary reflection of Fr Alfred Maravilla, General Councillor for Salesian Missions, focuses this August, with the aim of fostering awareness of these organisations and networking in support of integral development.
