Pope Francis met with members of civil society organizations in Quito’s historic San Francisco Cathedral on Tuesday night. In his meetings with different groups he has stressed the importance of education in transforming society and has also advocated social justice and the need to protect the environment, linking poverty with environmental disaster. On Wednesday he will visit a home for the elderly and meet with members of the clergy before heading for Bolivia at noon. Liz Scherffius reports from Quito for teleSUR.
