Detailed description

Who are we
The Don Bosco Werken Nederland Foundation (DBWN) is a partnership of independent youth and youth works, which work according to the Pedagogic Preventive Approach (PPA) of Don Bosco, an Italian priest who lived in the nineteenth century. His objective was prevention; he wanted to prevent young people in Turin from ending up in prison among the hardened criminals. Don Bosco's vision of education still fits in perfectly with today's multicultural society. Currently, eight youth and youth works are affiliated with DBWN through a covenant, but they function as independent and independent foundations.

Our vision
  • > DBWN gives young people the opportunity to grow up in freedom, responsibility, connectedness and meaning.
  • > DBWN strengthens and expands knowledge and application of the Preventive Pedagogical Approach (PPA) in youth and youth work in the Netherlands.
  • > DBWN inspires, stimulates and connects youth and youth workers and policy makers of the foundations affiliated with us, so that they can work enthusiastically and well equipped according to the PPA.
  • > DBWN continues to work on a recognizable and valued quality mark in youth and youth work in the Netherlands.
