International Development Executive/Social Impact Professional/CSR, Sustainability, Impact Investing & Philanthropy Strategist
Alongside Graca Machel, I had the inspiring privilege to participate in the second World Meeting on Human Fraternity at the Vatican this past weekend. Nobel Peace Prize laureates and human rights activists from around the world gathered to discuss ways in which we can bring ourselves closer to a world of peace, fraternity and social justice. Amid so much darkness, it was uplifting to sit at tables and meet wise warriors from all spiritual beliefs and walks of life who have dedicated their lives to the pursuit of justice. At the invitation of the Fondazione Fratelli Tutti, we had a private audience with Pope Francis where his encouraging words resonated deeply with me: “I urge you not to be discouraged, because “persistent and courageous dialogue does not make headlines, but quietly helps the world to live much better than we imagine….” Pope Francis’ full address in English here: https://bit.ly/3WKHhMK #BeHuman #GracaMachelTrust #FondazioneFratelliTutti
That quote, "...persistent and courageous dialogue..."? I love it!!! Well done, Leila Akahloun! Keep shining!
