HOLY SEE AT FAO: WE ARE ALL RESPONSIBLE FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS
Vatican City, 19 June 2013 (VIS) – Today, Archbishop Luigi
Travaglino, permanent observer of the Holy See to the United Nations
Organisations for Food and Agriculture (FAO, IFAD, and WFP), spoke at the 38th
session of the FAO Conference held in
Rome from 15-22 June.
In his address, Archbishop Travaglino emphasized that the Delegation from
the Holy See wanted to reiterate its appreciation of the FAO's actions in
favour of development and guaranteeing food security, as well as to reaffirm
its availability to
sustain this work, which concerns a fundamental aspect of personal and
communal life.
The prelate recalled that, in this particularly difficult moment for the
global economy, the Delegation from the Holy See encourages all the parties
concerned to further the implementation of the Organisation's programmes
carried out in the various
areas of agriculture, forestry, and fisheries, especially in view of the
objective of food security, which has become indispensable. It is therefore
necessary to move from words to deeds, making the necessary resources
available to the FAO.
At the same time, referring to the planning for the next biennium, he said
that the Delegation from the Holy See hopes for a broadening of the forms of
support to the artisanal activities and practices that constitute the basic
economic reality for
the majority of developing countries, which have in their monocultures, forest
resources, exploitation of marine resources, or agricultural activities, an
essential reference—unfortunately often the sole reference—for
their economies and
their food supply.
He also pointed out that the Holy See's reference to the sustainability of
food supply systems cannot be limited to manufacturing techniques, the
conservation of resources, or the exchange of information. “It appears
to us that the approach of
sustainability that is linked to the human person can help give meaning to the
responsibility that each of us has towards future generations.”
