29. april 2015: Pope Francis has placed Catholic Social Thought and a priority for those who are poor and vulnerable at the center of ecclesial and public life. Cardinal Óscar Rodríguez, archbishop of Tegucigalpa, Honduras, is uniquely qualified to articulate and interpret Pope Francis’ leadership and his vision of a Church “of and for the poor.” He leads the nine-member Council of Cardinals that advises Pope Francis. He also serves as president of Caritas Internationalis. 

Cardinal Rodríguez joined John Carr, the director of the Initiative on Catholic Social Thought and Public Life, in a conversation about the impact of Pope Francis’ leadership, especially in the area of Catholic social teaching, in the Vatican, on the Church, and in the World. They also discussed Church reform and the Pope’s upcoming trip to the United States. Georgetown President John J. DeGioia offered opening remarks. 

This event was cosponsored by the Initiative on Catholic Social Thought and Public Life; the Office of the President; the Office of Mission and Ministry; the Berkley Center for Religion, Peace, and World Affairs; and the Catholic Latino Leadership Initiative/Iniciativa de Liderazgo Católico.
