Simultaneously with the announcement, the new Coordinator, Rita Pinci, released the following statement:
Statement of Rita Pinci, Coordinator of the Editorial Board of “Donne Chiesa Mondo”
I am pleased about this appointment. It is something I was not expecting and at first I was surprised by the proposal of L’Osservatore Romano’s Editor-in-chief, Andrea Monda. Both because he thought of me, and for the complete freedom that he has assured to me and the Editorial Board.
I have followed “Donne Chiesa Mondo” (Women Church World) since it began, and I think the Church needs the gaze and voice of women who represent more than half of the faithful.
I am not a theologian, a Church historian, an expert on Vatican issues.
I am a journalist. I am a believer.
I was asked to make my expertise available to a community and a newspaper that I have always read with interest, and I believe that it is a great human – before professional – opportunity for me, to be able to take part in this project.
My contribution will be mainly that of coordinating the Editorial Board in its work which will be carried out in a collegial manner and in the spirit of sharing the diverse talents and skills of the women who will participate in it and with whom I am proud to share this stretch of the road in a pursuit that for me began even before the professional one, in the first years of university, when I began to share certain fundamental themes of the women’s movement.
