Pope Francis: Birth Rate is a Key Indicator of a Country’s Hope

Daniel Ibanez/CNAPope Francis shared a stage with Italy’s Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni on May 12, 2023, to speak at a two-day conference on “The General State of the Birth Rate,” held at Conciliazione Auditorium close to the Vatican.

‘If few are born it means there is little hope. And this not only has repercussions from an economic and social point of view, but also undermines confidence in the future.’
