The book
dwells on issues affecting contemporary Filipino youth, and chronicles
the evolution of their values and life-styles through the decades since
the nineteen fifties, the time of arrival of the Salesians in the Philippines.
Thus the book presents the strides made by Don Bosco in guiding young
Filipinos toward morally upright and productive lives over the past
fifty years.
The
book forms part of a bigger youth initiative. Ultimately, the goal is
to reach decision-makers and opinion leaders and to network with them
in moving toward more proactive initiatives both for and with young
people. Hopefully, fresh initiatives will be undertaken to involve and
benefit the marginalized sectors of the youth.
