Abstract

In this article author presents the contemporary educational context of Europe, with its multiple challenges, threats, and opportunities. It focuses mai- nly on many different challenges of globalization, marked especially by growing European context of multiculturalism and multireligiosity. The new educational situation, different from that of the past, constitutes a major challenge for educatio- nal institutions also for the Salesians and requires a new approach. The education of today’s youth cannot be limited only to mourn the past, but also to courageous search for a new identity of the charism of Don Bosco, adapted to the mentality of contemporary Europeans, especially young people.

Keywords:

charism, John Bosco, globalization, identity, multiculturalism, multireligiosity
