Its firm commitment to social justice, fairness and human dignity inspired the committee’s task and is still the main axis of its actions in the three Americas. Later on the African continent.
Not only was Francisco a spiritual figure, but rather a moral and political evidence for the judicial community committed to social rights. In June 2019, the Pope was personally signed by the founding action of the Vatican in the Vatican.

Each national chapter of the committee issued farewell messages, in addition to honoring the Pope, as a reaffirmation of their own obligations in defending justice with a human face. For example, the Brazilian chapter confirmed that its sadness was accompanied by hope, citing biblical words and itself about the healing power of poetic justice, capable of integrating the planet and the poorest healing. They promised to double efforts for dignity and peace.
