May 26, 2017
Casina Pio IV, Vatican City — Blue Chip Foundation , represented by founder Jennifer Gross, participated inEthics in Action3: Migrants and Refugees on May 25 and 26 to help address the moral response to mass migration and the world’s current refugee crisis. Organized by Ethics in Action, a partnership of the Chancellor of the Pontifical Academies, the UN Sustainable Development Network, Religions for Peace and the University of Notre Dame, dozens of attendees participated in promising dialogue and resulted in a pledge from EIA to fulfill six key pledges to help alleviate suffering and end the crisis.
“There are more than 65 million people who have been forcefully displaced,” says Gross, who helped found Ethics in Action. “The majority of these people are internally displaced persons, or IDPs. They’re not formal refugees crossing international borders, and they’re often displaced because of socio-economic, war, and terror.”
