Pope Leo XIV has released his first Encyclical, Magnifica Humanitas

Pope Leo XIV has released his first Encyclical, Magnifica Humanitas.

Magnifica Humanitas offers insights into the protection of the human person in the age of artificial intelligence, recognising a profound epochal shift. It places the dignity of the human person at the centre as the criteria for guiding technical progress.

The Church’s social teaching accompanies these transformations, pointing to the common good, solidarity and subsidiarity as the fundamental benchmarks for understanding and interpreting the transformation currently underway. It proposes, as an alternative to the culture of power and war, a civilisation of love founded on justice, dialogue and shared responsibility.

We encourage everyone to take time to read and reflect on this important moment in the life of the Church.
