Round Table on 'The Duty to Report Crimes of Abuse', February 29th
On Thursday, February 29, 2024 (at 4 PM - Álvaro del Portillo Hall), the School of Canon Law has organized a Round Table titled The Duty to Report Crimes of Abuse.
After the introductory remarks by Professor Eduardo Baura of the School of Canon Law, several experts have examined the issue from various perspectives: the civil perspective has been addressed by Professor Roberto Borgonovo, the canonical perspective by Professor Matteo Visioli, and the ecclesiastical perspective by Professor Massimo del Pozzo. Professor Jorge Otaduy talked about the collaboration between civil and ecclesiastical authorities, while Professor Giuseppe Comotti addressed the topic of the crime of failure to report.
Professor Geraldina Boni, President of the Interministerial Commission for Agreements with Religious Confessions and for Religious Freedom, chaired the Round Table.
This activity is part of the initiatives on abuse prevention organized by the University.
As a reminder, on February 7, 2024, at Casa Santa Marta, the Holy Cross signed a Collaboration Agreement with the Pontifical Commission for the Protection of Minors, in the shared mission of preventing abuse and protecting minors and vulnerable adults, which is inherent to the universal Church.
