The upcoming visit of Pope Francis in Asia and its importance for the interreligious relationship

The Vatican recently presented the program for the upcoming journey of Pope Francis to Asia. This visit will not only be the longest in its pontificate, but also offer a significant opportunity to strengthen inter -religious relationships in the region.

The trip will last from September 2 to September 13th and lead the Pope to Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, East Timor and Singapore. He will not only keep official speeches, but also have important encounters with representatives of public life, spiritual and believers of different religions

Special attention is also paid to the Schola's occurrent school network, which deals with the challenges and problems of today's youth. Topics such as education, environmental protection, social justice and violence are the focus of this initiative.

The visit to Indonesia, a majority of Islamic country, will offer a valuable opportunity to promote interreligious dialogue and to strengthen relationships between the different faith communities. A visit to the predominantly Catholic countries Papua New Guinea and East Timor will also make an important contribution to promoting interreligious understanding.

The trip finally ends in Singapore, where the Catholic community represents a minority. This underlines the importance of exchange and cooperation between different religious groups to promote peace and harmony in society.

The visit of Pope Francis in Asia will not only be a historical journey for the Pontifex, but also offer an opportunity to highlight the importance of interreligious dialogue and cooperation for a better world.
