In response to urgent calls, come urgent answers. Pope Francis’s latest Apostolic Exhortation, Laudate Deum, contains an appeal to translate dreams into action—concrete ideas guided by ethical compasses and shared values. This is the essence of this publication. It features the knowledge and operational contributions of experts from CAF – Development Bank of Latin America and the Caribbean who provide concise analyses of the institution’s initiatives underway in the region. In addition, we have invited a group of thought leaders to contribute to this publication from a multidimensional perspective, inspired by Laudate Deum.
