WEBINAR

Human beings are storytellers because we are engaged in a process of constant growth, discovering ourselves and becoming enriched in the tapestry of the days of our life. Yet since the very beginning, our story has been threatened: evil snakes its way through history

Pope Francis
 

Fr Hans Zollner, president of the Centre for Child Protection at Rome’s Gregorian University, says the Church now more than ever has to take the lead in promoting child safety, pointing out that the Coronavirus has put young and vulnerable people at even more risk of exploitation. 

(The Tablet, Christopher Lamb)

Le père Hans Zollner, président du Centre pour la protection de l'enfance de l'université grégorienne de Rome, affirme que l'Église doit plus que jamais prendre l'initiative de promouvoir la sécurité des enfants, en soulignant que le Coronavirus a exposé les jeunes et les personnes vulnérables à un risque d'exploitation encore plus grand. 

The primary responsibility lies with bishops, priests and religious, those who have received from the Lord the vocation to offer their lives to  service, including the vigilant protection of all vulnerable children, young people and adults.
