About this sermon

A Vatican university is set to host a 3 day meeting on the importance of democracy. "Educating for Democracy in a Fragmented World" begins tomorrow in Rome. Pope Francis will meet with participants on Friday at the Vatican. The initiative began in 2018 and has been hosted by more than a dozen universities. Secretary General for the Pontifical Foundation on Education, Monsignor Guy-Real Thivierge, joins to tell us more about these meetings, how many people are taking part and where they are from. Msgr. Thivierge explains in what sorts of ways democracy has a religious meaning. He discusses more about the Pontifical foundation and the work it does.
