From Sept. 2nd to 13th, 2024, Pope Francis will travel to Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, Timor Leste, and Singapore. The longest apostolic journey since the beginning of his papacy, Pope Francis will engage with not only some of the richest and poorest countries of today’s world, but also with the most religiously diverse society (Singapore) and the most Catholic nation of the 21th century (Timor Leste) as well as with the country with the world’s largest Muslim population (Indonesia). In this online roundtable, panelists will analyze most important aspects of this papal visit and their relevance for local governments, ecclesial communities, national development, and cross-regional connections.
Dr. Jonathan Tan will provide his expertise on Singapore as a panelist on the Online Roundtable discussion.
