Francesco Papa
Francesco Papa, commonly known as Pope Francis, is the current head of the Roman Catholic Church, having been elected in 2013. He is known for his emphasis on humility, social justice, and interfaith dialogue, which have shaped his papacy in significant ways. Francis is the first pope from the Americas and the Southern Hemisphere, hailing from Argentina. His leadership has been marked by efforts to reform the church and address contemporary issues such as climate change, inequality, and the need for greater inclusivity within the church. In the context of the recent conclave discussion, he serves as a focal point for the ongoing debate about the future direction of the papacy and what it means to be a 'Christian on the throne of Peter.'
