Providing a bird's eye-view of the vast Salesian apostolate all over the world, in 130 countries, is the new Salesian Magazine 'Salesian 2010' ... here's the digital version of the same. I should say that there has been significant effort made to include every possible sector of work, that we Salesians are engaged in besides the regular programmes of education, empowerment and youth ministry. This magazine is worth reading and reviewing.

The Salesian Preventive System
The foundation of our Salesian educative system is what was prescribed by Don Bosco himself and given the title, The Preventive System. Based on the three pillars of Reason, Religion and Loving Kindness, the Preventive System of the Salesians has proved to be an effective educative system in helping young people not just become successful adults but mature and sensible citizens.
While during the life of Don Bosco himself we had excellent proofs of the success of this system, in the person of Dominic Savio, a list of other luminaries in the Church and in the world continues to grow... here are a few more.
Here is a good review of the whole "system" from a modern context, especially concerning 'reason'.
