\n<\/strong>Consultant, Dicastery for Communication
\n\u201cA consultant, as the name indicates, is someone you consult, someone who gives advice. An \u2018advisor\u2019 outside of the institution who has their own personal vision, and can enrich the work being done inside the institution. It\u2019s traditional for the Vatican Curia to seek collaborators from among people outside. In this case, professors from pontifical universities.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>Consultant, Dicastery for Communication
\n\u201cHe\u2019s a Pope we see praying about things. He doesn\u2019t just know how to talk or be spontaneous. It\u2019s clear he meditates deeply on things. He explained it very well after his trip to Iraq. He said he made the difficult decision to go on the trip after thinking, meditating, and praying. After asking for God\u2019s help in making the decision. In this sense he\u2019s very open, he talks about his experiences and his doubts.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>Consultant, Dicastery for Communication
\n\u201cIt\u2019s not so much the technical dimension of communication that has to change, even though it\u2019s obviously advanced enormously, and continues to advance in the right direction. Rather, we need to provide context, to explain and to help make sense of what\u2019s being said. Not just talking about \u2018breaking news\u2019 and what\u2019s happening right now.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
