His comments came during a visit to the northern Italian city of Trieste on Sunday which marked the 50th Social Week of Italian Catholics – this year addressing the theme of democracy in crisis. As part of the trip, he went to the Generali Convention Centre where the leader of the Catholic Church addressed the state of global democracy and its functionality. “Let’s be honest, in today’s world democracy is not in good health,” Francis said. “I ...

Starved for resources, Cabrini convinces a New York Times reporter to write about the slum—and an avalanche of do...
