Salesian Social Communication is a vital pillar of the Salesian mission, emphasizing evangelization, education, and community building through modern media and communication. Rooted in the vision of Don Bosco, who leveraged print media and innovative methods to reach youth, it embodies a dynamic approach to fostering dialogue, forming young minds, and spreading Gospel values.
The scope of Salesian Social Communication spans various activities, including print publications, digital media, and audio-visual productions. In Kenya, BEAMS carries this out.
Key elements of Salesian Social Communication include training in ethical and effective communication, developing a critical understanding of media, and using technology to propagate educational and evangelizing initiatives. The Social Communication Commission trains the Salesians and the youth in positive content creation and critical use of media.
The role of communication as a relational tool is emphasized in forming “a culture of encounter.” Salesian communicators prioritize creating spaces where dialogue flourishes and relationships thrive, reflecting Don Bosco’s mission to “educate by evangelizing and evangelize by educating.”
In Kenya, the Social Communication Commission facilitates these activities and supports the dissemination of the Salesian Bulletin, a quarterly publication from Nairobi. The bulletin reflects the vibrancy and diversity of Salesian works, celebrating milestones, sharing inspiring stories, and offering thought-provoking reflections to enrich the Salesian community globally.

Our aim is to uplift communities through partnerships, innovation, and unwavering dedication to the Salesian mission.
