The Markkula Center for Applied Ethics at Santa Clara University is delighted to feature Cardinal Oscar Andres Rodriguez Maradiaga as its Regan Lecturer for the 2014-15 academic year. One of the most influential leaders in the Catholic Church today, Cardinal Rodriguez is Archbishop of Tegucigalpa, Honduras, and coordinator of the unprecedented eight-member Council of Cardinals named by Pope Francis to provide counsel on Church governance. The Ethics Center has asked the Cardinal to speak on the theme of mercy in light of Pope Francis's emphasis on this theme, and such issues as the migration of children from Central America to the United States, the Vatican Synod on Pastoral Care of the Family, and economic inequality.
