\nPrefect, Dicastery for Promoting Integral Human Development<\/strong>
\n\u201cSo fashioning peace may not be placed only in the hands of politicians and big actors, but ordinary people need to be taken on board, because at the end of the day, it is the well-being of people that is at stake, that is considered, and their dignity is what counts.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
\nUndersecretary, Dicastery for Promoting Integral Human Development<\/strong>
\n\u201cYoung people, who are always at the center of Pope Francis' magisterium, by now are well aware that they are inside this conflict between us and the earth. They did not ask for it. They do not want it, but they know they are fighting to save the planet and us human beings, from this absurd conflict that our economic system has waged against the environment. And the Pope is with them.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\n\u201cSurely the pandemic has aggravated poverty, but it's about a pre-existing condition. We're talking about people who cannot meet their own basic needs nor those of their family because of growing material inequality.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
