The Catholic Church has made great strides in drafting norms to protect children and other people at risk of abuse, but “we don’t have a culture of accountability when it comes to the implementation of those norms,” said Jesuit Fr. Hans Zollner , a leading expert in the field.
The Jesuit spoke to reporters June 22 at the conclusion of the 2023 International Safeguarding Conference at the Gregorian University. The conference brought together more than 200 bishops, safeguarding officers and specialists from some 50 nations to discuss “sustaining organisational accountability.”
Poh told reporters the next day that in most of Asia safeguarding programmes are in their infancy, but a growing number of bishops are committed to implementing steps to screen candidates for the priesthood and parish volunteers. In his presentation to the conference, the archbishop said he found it helpful to make an “examination of conscience” about his own accountability using traits described in the book, “The Oz Principle: Getting Results through Individual and Organizational Accountability.”
