THE FULL FACE OF HUMANITY: CARITAS INTERNATIONALIS AND THE HOLY SEE TO HOST A CONFERENCE ON WOMEN’S LEADERSHIP FOR A JUST SOCIETY

Promoting a culture of encounter in which women’s experiences and expertise are valued and included in the development of just societies; exploring the sociological, ethical obstacles, challenges and opportunities concerning women’s participation in leadership and decision making at all levels; listening to the concrete experiences of Caritas in working with women wherever they suffer, struggle and hope for a better future, in order to shape the principles and best practices that allow for the flourishing of the full face of humanity.

These are the aims of the two-day conference organised by Caritas Internationalis and the Permanent Observer Mission of the Holy See to UNESCO on the 27th – 28th of October, under the patronage of UNESCO. The event titled, “The Full Face of Humanity: Women in leadership for a just society”, will bring together more than 30 speakers from around the world to discuss these key issues.

The conference will take place at the UNESCO headquarters in Paris and live-streamed on the Vatican News YouTube channels in English, French, and Spanish (Vatican News – YouTube)
