  • Pope says the poor should have a say in making a 'different economic narrative'
  • He urged economists to promote post-virus economic models involving the poor
  • He recently highlighted how those on society's margins are hit hardest by crisis

He said the poor should be invited to participate in discussions about creating a 'different economic narrative' that he thinks is urgently needed.

He said the future will be a 'time that reminds us that we are not condemned to economic models whose immediate interest is limited to profit and promoting favorable public policies, unconcerned with their human, social and environmental cost.'

During the pandemic, Francis has decried that the people on society's margins have been among those suffering the most during the health crisis.
