Pope Francis hosted a summit in Rome focusing on protecting children from war, exploitation, trafficking, and forced labor. The summit highlighted the violations of children's rights worldwide, especially in conflict zones like Gaza. Queen Rania of Jordan, Holocaust survivor Liliana Segre, and other leaders emphasized the urgent need to protect children, referring to the UN convention on the rights of the child. Pope Francis also drew attention to the plight of stateless children and refugees, while also acknowledging the Church's struggles with its own history of abuse.
