Vatikanen uppmärksammar internationella kvinnodagen

Bland talarna bla Ulla Gudmundson och  Lesley-Anne Knight

”A Swedish writer, political analyst, and Swedish Ambassador to the Holy See 2008-2013. Her work as an ambassador to the Holy See meant that Ulla was extremely close to the pulse of the Vatican and the role of women within the Church. At the same time because she is a Lutheran she can comment on the roles of women within a sister Church.”

”Lesley-Anne Knight became Chief Executive Officer of The Elders in January 2013. She believes strongly that combating injustice and inequality is vital to building enduring peace in the world and has been active in humanitarian and development work for more than 30 years.

She was previously Secretary General of Caritas Internationalis, a global confederation of Catholic aid agencies based in Rome. As leader of one of the world’s largest development and humanitarian networks, she had overall responsibility for the coordination of Caritas global relief efforts following major natural disasters and humanitarian crises such as the Haiti earthquake of 2010 and the conflicts in Darfur, Democratic Republic of Congo, Middle East and Sri Lanka.

She has also worked as International Director of CAFOD (the Catholic Agency for Overseas Development) and as Emergencies Manager for HelpAge International. Earlier in her career she gained invaluable field experience, spending several years in Latin America working with indigenous peoples and refugees, as well as in the Mexico City office of Oxfam.”
