THIRTY-FIVE
BISHOPS IN CUBA TO IMPROVE COMMUNICATION STRATEGIES
Vatican
City, 28 January 2014 (VIS) – The Pontifical Council for Social
Communications is organising a seminar on communication, to be held
in February in Havana, Cuba. During the four days during which the
meeting will take place, the participants, thirty-five bishops from
Central America and the Caribbean, will reflect upon the meaning of
communication in today's world, how to communicate and what to
communicate, according to Archbishop Claudio Maria Celli, president
of the dicastery.
The
seminar will focus on the Pope's message for World Social
Communications Day, “Communication at the service of an authentic
culture of encounter”, and will have the principal aim of offering
bishops the tools for improving their communication strategies in
their dioceses.
