From Thursday 10^th – Sunday 13^th March, the Member Organisations of DBYN came together in Sliema, Malta for their Annual General Executive Body (G.E.B) meeting.

13 representatives attended the meeting hosted by SPYS Malta (Salesian Pastoral Youth Service). The first day was an opportunity to get to know any new representatives and for the more experienced members to re-connect with each other.

The group were then given the opportunity to visit St Patrick's Salesian School in the morning, and then visit Valetta in the afternoon, to see the work of SPYS in and around Malta.

On the Saturday, the work of the G.E.B began. The body met to look ahead to the activities that were scheduled in 2023, and to hear about the activities of each member organisation present. It was also an opportunity to look at the state of affairs of the network.

We were also introduced to the newest staff member to DBYN, Begoña Ros Gras. Begoña is joining DBYN as Project Coordinator and Fundraising officer and has been volunteering for DBYN as an international representative.

Once we had concluded the business of the network, SPYS took us over to Dingli to see the sunset from the Dingli cliffs before visiting Savio college.

The next G.E.B meeting in October will involve the elections for a new President of DBYN and a new Administrative Board.
