Pope sees Milan Expo as opportunity to boost fight against world hunger

May 01, 2015

In a video message for the opening of the Milan Expo on May 1, Pope Francis said that the six-month event, devoted to feeding the world, “is a propitious occasion to globalize solidarity.”

“Let us not waste it, but make the most of it,” the Pope said.

Organizers of the Milan Expo expect 20 million visitors to the event, at which participants are demonstrating their techniques to improve food production and distribution, in the hope of easing world hunger.
