Two more members of PLURIEL appointed to the Commission of the Pontifical Council for Interreligious Dialogue
Pope Francis appointed in October 2020 a group of new consultors to the Pontifical Council for Interreligious Dialogue. Among them, two members of the Pluriel network have joined the group of consultors (of whom 4 are already members of our network.) We congratulate their respective institutions and encourage them in the ever more necessary work of Islamic-Christian dialogue.
