The Vatican’s secretary for relations with states, Archbishop Paul Gallagher, on Tuesday reaffirmed before the United Nations the Holy See’s commitment to promoting the dignity and equality of women but warned that these goals cannot be achieved without respecting dignity “from the unborn to the elderly.”

“Women’s equality cannot be achieved unless the dignity of all people is respected, especially the most fragile and vulnerable, from the unborn to the elderly,” the archbishop, a native of Liverpool, England, said Sept. 23.

Gallagher gave his address on the 30th anniversary of the Fourth World Conference on Women in Beijing, and the text was released by the Permanent Observer Mission of the Holy See to the United Nations in New York.
