The World Confederation of Former Students of the Brothers of the Christian Schools came into existence in Brussels in 1958... In 1976, on Malta, it was transformed into the Lasallian World Confederation to respond to the new notion of "Lasallian Family"... Facing the necessity of structuring within the Lasallian Family all the movements that have sprung up in the Institute, the World Confederation ceased in 1990 and elaborated new Statutes to constitute the World Union of Lasallian Former Students, which began to organize itself in 1992. 1, record 2, English, - World%20Union%20of%20Lasallian%20Former%20Students
