Adrien Candiard, OP, Member of the Institut dominicain d’études orientales (IDEO); Agbonkhianmeghe E. Orobator SJ, SJ, President of the Jesuit Conference of Africa and Madagascar (JCAM). Introduced by Alberto Savorana, Spokesperson for Communion and Liberation.

Two protagonists of ecclesial life on an international level will discuss the theme of the Meeting. Adrien Candiard, Dominican from Paris, transplanted in Egypt where he studies Islam, with his books and his preaching is able to make modernity dialogue with the nerve centre of Christianity in our time, the vocation to freedom. Agbonkhianmeghe Orobator, Nigerian Jesuit, responsible for the Society of Jesus throughout Africa and author of theology appreciated in different parts of the world, embodies the transformation of those who embrace the Christian faith as adults, rediscovering and at the same time enlivening their cultural roots, thus verifying that Christianity is the greatest fulfilment of the human being because it corresponds to the profound desire for happiness and fullness proper to the self.
