The Salesian cardinal, a native of Spain with pastoral experience also in Latin America, was in Paris from February 26 to 28, and in fluent French, he spoke at a series of meetings, also giving an important interview on the national Catholic channel KTO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On Tuesday, February 27, he went to the Catholic &#8220;Le Bon Conseil&#8221; patronage in Paris for a conference on dialogue and education in Islamic lands, a topic that is particularly familiar to him, since he has been Archbishop of Rabat, Morocco, since 2017.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Invited by the Don Bosco Foundation and the Cholet-Dupont-Oudart bank, Card. L\u00f3pez Romero reiterated the importance of a dialogue made of friendship and service, agreeing to work together for the great common causes, of which education is a part: in fact, &#8220;education is a divine task, a collaboration with the work of God,&#8221; the Cardinal stressed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;I am not here to share intellectual or educational discoveries with you. I came to share with you an experience, that of the Church in Morocco, and that of the Salesians of Don Bosco who have been there for many years&#8221;, explained the Salesian Cardinal, recalling that Catholic education in Morocco involves 10,000 students, 12 schools and 600 teachers, all Muslims. &#8220;Our schools are Catholic because they offer an educational project that stems from the Gospel and the social doctrine of the Church,&#8221; he explained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Aware of the vital importance of education, the &#8220;Foundation Don Bosco,&#8221; which has been helping young people since 1986, and the &#8220;Cholet-Dupont-Oudart&#8221; bank, which helps customers invest their savings in a significant way, are working together with the &#8220;Education and Dialogue&#8221; sharing fund. A sharing fund that combines finance and philanthropy: investors deposit their savings in the fund, and the Cholet-Dupont-Oudart bank donates 50% of the management fees to the Don Bosco Foundation. The main investors are foundations and associations, but also private individuals, all concerned about the future of young people.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To watch the Cardinal&#8217;s interview on KTO TV,&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.don-bosco.net\/video\/entretien-exceptionnel-avec-le-cardinal-cristobal-lopez-romero-kto-tv\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">click here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" data-attachment-id=\"10471\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/salesianbulletin.org\/es\/2024\/03\/05\/the-archbishop-of-rabat-cardinal-cristobal-lopez-romero-sdb-in-paris-for-a-conference-on-dialogue-and-education-in-islamic-lands\/cheikh-khaled-larbi-fondation_don_bosco_27_fevrier_2024-016\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/salesianbulletin.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/cheikh-khaled-larbi-fondation_don_bosco_27_fevrier_2024-016.jpg?fit=3360%2C2240&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"3360,2240\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;4&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;Canon EOS R&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1709080936&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;78&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;8000&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.00625&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"cheikh-khaled-larbi-fondation_don_bosco_27_fevrier_2024-016\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/salesianbulletin.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/cheikh-khaled-larbi-fondation_don_bosco_27_fevrier_2024-016.jpg?fit=720%2C480&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/salesianbulletin.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/cheikh-khaled-larbi-fondation_don_bosco_27_fevrier_2024-016.jpg?resize=720%2C480&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10471\" \/><\/figure>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(ANS \u2013 Paris)\u00a0\u2013\u00a0&#8220;Education is a process of relationship so that an individual, young or old, can take from themselves all the abilities that God has given them and place them at the service of society.&#8221; Archbishop Crist\u00f3bal L\u00f3pez Romero, appointed Cardinal by Pope Francis in 2019, is also a Salesian of Don Bosco and, therefore,\u00a0\u00e7a va sans dire, is passionate about educational issues.
