Pope Francis Advocates for Fair Worker Treatment and Sustainable Resource Use in Papua New Guinea

During his visit to Papua New Guinea, Pope Francis emphasized the importance of fair treatment for workers and sustainable development of natural resources.

He highlighted the need for international cooperation, mutual respect, and agreements that benefit all parties involved. The Pope's call comes as Papua New Guinea, a nation rich in natural resources and comprising over 600 islands, faces challenges from international companies targeting its gas and other resources.

Additionally, he urged an end to the tribal violence that has plagued the country for decades, advocating for peace and equitable development.
