member organisations
& Youth partnerships

Don Bosco Youth-Net ivzw is a network which brings together youth people active within the Don Bosco Movement, aiming at offering them international opportunities to learn and grow to become active citizens.  In order to achieve this objective we actively build a network of member organisations and partnerships with local Don Bosco youth groups.

Member organisations

Don Bosco Youth-Net ivzw has 2 categories of member organisations:
 
The first category consists of youth organisations that work in the educational style of Don Bosco. These organisations all have a national recognition as non-profit organisation. The legal status depends on their country, however they are all offering forms of non-formal education to children and young people.
 
The second category consists youth ministry departments of Salesian provinces. The youth ministry department is responsible for the non-formal organisations and activities within the province. This second category of membership fits in our capacity-building strategy. In those countries where there is no national umbrella organisation for non-formal youth work, the youth ministry department can take over the role of national coordination. At the same time we can support them in the development of such a national youth organisation. Once this organisation has been established, the membership will be shifted to the newly established organisation.
 
In order to assure that our network is youth-led, our statutes determine that the second category of member organisations can never exceed 50% of the full membership.

Don Bosco Youth-Net ivzw currently has 18 members organisations, from 16 European countries:

Apply for membership?

Youth partnerships

In countries where Don Bosco Youth-Net ivzw does not have a member organisation, local youth work organisation that work in the style of Don Bosco can apply for a youth partnership. This can be different kind of organisations like oratories, youth clubs, youth centres and parish groups. When a youth partnership is established, the organisation can take part in DBYN’s activities and get support from DBYN’s international secretary. In this way we aim to open our opportunities to local youth work in non-member countries. We also aim to start-up a capacity-building process towards a future membership.
