Pope calls for respect of the dignity of all women

Remembering Friday's annual International Women's Day, Pope Francis expressed his nearness to all women, especially to those whose dignity is not respected. He says there is still so much work to be done by all institutions in this area.

By Vatican News

While addressing pilgrims and visitors during Sunday's Angelus, Pope Francis recalled that two days ago we marked the annual International Women's Day. He wished to express his nearness to all women around the world, especially those whose dignity is not respected.

So much yet to be done

He observed there is still so much to be done by each and every one of us to promote the equal dignity of women so that it concretely is recognised. 

He recalled that social and political institutions have the fundamental duty to protect and promote the dignity of every human person, offering women, the bearers of life, the necessary living conditions so they are able to accept the gift of life and ensure their children a dignified existence.
