30-31 May 2017 members of Don Bosco Network accompanied by the Councilor for Missions Fr Guillermo Basanes and the Coordinator of Mission Offices Fr George Menamparampil, met at the VIA Don Bosco headquarters in Brussels for the annual General Assembly meeting to discuss the next steps of the network development.

As Joanna Stozek from SWM, Poland stepped down as DBN President due to change of professional carrier; Peter Annegarn the President of VIA Don Bosco, in supplementary elections, was unanimously elected by all the members the new President of Don Bosco Network. Peter has a great experience of leadership as he is also the President for European Forum of National Laity Committees. Peter worked as well with DBN in the past when the Network was newly established. We wish Peter great success and inspiration in this new leadership task in supporting Don Bosco Mission worldwide.
