Globalization Must Respect Human Rights and Dignity

16 Feb 2005

Cardinal Renato Martino, president of the Pontifical Council “Justice and Peace,” and Juan Somavia, director of the International Labor Organization, are due to present the conclusions of the follow up to a Report published last year by the World Commission on the Social Dimension of Globalization. The event will take place at 3 p.m. on February 25 at the Pontifical Lateran University.

According to a communique released by the pontifical council, the report “seeks to initiate a globalization with a strong social dimension, based on universally shared values, on respect for human rights and for the dignity of each individual; a just and democratically governed globalization that offers tangible opportunities and benefits to all countries and to all peoples.”
