Aims & Ethos
The media industry is growing quickly worldwide, expected to reach approximately USD 6,709.4 billion by 2030. But education in arts and media is expensive, depriving passionate and talented youth of the chance to study and gain employment in this burgeoning field.
The mission of the Don Bosco International Media Academy is to offer every student regardless of economic means the best education in a technically advanced and artistically supportive environment.
This mission is at the center of the broader mission of the Salesian Society of Don Bosco, recognized by governments worldwide as an international organization distinguished for its education of the underprivileged and youth at risk.
