The analysis of these multiple needs must be followed by indications of responses and solutions that aim at building a society of equals. Therefore, search with the collaboration of all men of good will” to make words become concrete.
We address ourselves in particular to Catholic world to whom we ask to have more self-confidence and courage in becoming protagonists for the change of our world, but also of all other sensitivities and cultures, because poverty, in the long term, impoverishes everyone”, the organizers say.
