This research is a fundamental reflection in Philosophy of Education, on the education of educators in Preventive Education from an andragogical perspective. The focus is on the agein and aner-agein as an exclusive human act of authentic agogic accompaniment and on the qualities of the authentic educator.
The research describes how Preventive Education is capable of responding to education agein and aner-agein as well as remaining open to the new demands of the contemporary modern world and problems facing the young. A critical reflection on Preventive Education attempts to ascertain whether, as an educative method, it can be offered as a viable alternative to primary and secondary educators currently unaware of the essence
of Preventive Education. The study concludes with a chapter that deals specifically with the education of Salesian educators taking into account the renewal brought about within the Roman Catholic Chuch and the Salesian Congregation after Vatican II. This renewal lays the foundation for the implementation of
a new form of Preventive Education and the impetus that will carry it into the Third Millennium. One of the recommendations of the study includes the urgency of educating lay Salesian educators in Preventive
Education. / Educational Studies / D. Ed. (Philosophy of Education)
