In one unlikely area, social changes are being sparked by six groundbreaking appointments: On August 6, 2020, the leader of the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vaticannews.va\/en\/pope\/news\/2020-08\/pope-francis-new-members-for-economy-council.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Pontificate of the Holy See<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, Pope Francis, appointed six women to the Vatican Council for the Economy for the first time throughout the Church\u2019s 2,000-year existence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Comprised of eight religious leaders and seven laypeople, the six-year-old council was established to \u201csupervise the economic management of the structures, along with Church\u2019s administrative and financial activities, of the Dicastery\u2019s of the Roman Curia, as well as the Institutions connected with the Holy See and Vatican City State.\u201d The Council for the Economy acts only as a security measure for papal spending and is led by the Vatican bank.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">While to most the appointment of six women to the largely-male 5,000-person workforce of the Holy See may seem groundbreaking, the positions themselves do not hold much influence in the overall decision-making of the church\u2019s social positions. However, there is a growing inclusion of women. The previous percentage of the workforce being women in 2010 at the end of\u00a0 was only 697 women of the 4,053 person workforce, making it 83 percent male and 17 percent female. In comparison, last year\u2019s 4,618 person workforce included 1,016 women, making it only 78 percent male. This five percent rise in the female workforce of the Holy See is considered groundbreaking, headlining major news sites like <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/pope-francis-appoints-six-women-to-senior-vatican-positions-a-historic-first\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">CBS<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> who hailed it a \u201chistoric first.\u201d This historic first is unfortunately too little, too late, and we can do better than a five percent increase over ten years.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The six women appointed to the Council for the Economy are Professor Dr. Charlotte Kreuter-Kirchhof (Germany), Dr. Marija Kolak (Germany), Maria Concepcion Osacar Garaicoechea (Spain), Eva Castillo Sanz (Spain), Ruth Mary Kelly (UK), Leslie Jane Ferrar (UK), and Alberto Minali (Italy). Each of the women has a thorough financial background ranging from Lead Financial Advisor to Bank President, and many with American degrees. Although they all have rich financial backgrounds, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2019\/10\/25\/world\/europe\/vatican-women-synod-bishops-amazon.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">some outside of the Catholic Church<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> has taken notice of their solely European, Catholic background. This means that the appointments remained within a major European financial system and the Catholic faith. This has led many to pose the question: Will the Catholic Church ever attempt to solve the debate on female Church leaders and establish a diverse leadership?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This major factor has sparked even louder criticism from within the Catholic faith itself. Recently, there has been a large movement to allow women to apply to major leadership positions, such as priests. Most notably, the theologian and biblical scholar <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/world\/2020\/aug\/30\/women-are-future-of-catholic-church-anne-soupa-leads-renewed-fight-for-female-ordination\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Anne Soupa<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> has led the French movement to formally establish women as Church leaders by applying to succeed the current Archbishop of Lyon. She famously petitioned the Catholic Church to allow for the mere eligibility for the position, gaining a total of 17,000 signatures. Of course, following the long history of an all-male leadership, she was not made eligible for the position. While her move would not have been considered by most worldwide institutions, her application marked a line too radical for even Pope Francis to cross.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Pontificate of the Holy See has long been conservative up until the Second Vatican Council when bishops in Latin America, Africa, and Southeast Asia began pushing for worldwide social reforms. The Church\u2019s \u201c<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.usccb.org\/beliefs-and-teachings\/what-we-believe\/catholic-social-teaching\/option-for-the-poor-and-vulnerable\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">preferential option for the poor<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201d was hailed as a turn from a conservative to a radically liberalized institutional move. As Pope Francis continues this liberalization movement, people are once again calling for more. As citizens of developing countries once did in the 1960s, women, LGBTQ+ people, and youth worldwide are urging for a radical restructuring of global institutions, and the Church\u2019s incredibly slow rate of change.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The views expressed in opinion articles are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the values of The Diplomatic Envoy.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In one unlikely area, social changes are being sparked by six groundbreaking appointments: On August 6, 2020, the leader of the Pontificate of the Holy See, Pope Francis, appointed six women to the Vatican Council for the Economy for the first time throughout the Church\u2019s 2,000-year existence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4899,"featured_media":9448,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_container_layout":"default_layout","colormag_page_sidebar_layout":"default_layout","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1938,7,1862],"tags":[445,504,741],"class_list":["post-9464","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-september-2020","category-opinion","category-1862","tag-women","tag-pope-francis","tag-catholic-church"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Pope Francis Appoints Six Women to Economic Council: Is that Enough?
