Conservative Ladies’ Breakfast – “Hungary and the New Pope”

The seventh of our joint Conservative Ladies’ Breakfast, organised in cooperation with the Foundation for a Civic Hungary, once again brought together a diverse and inspiring group of women who actively shape our society through their roles in politics, culture, business, and public life. The gathering provided a welcoming and intellectually engaging environment, where participants could share their experiences, exchange ideas, and strengthen both professional and personal ties.

We were honoured to host two exceptional speakers for this occasion: Sister Sarolta Laura Baritz, O.P., Ph.D., Dominican sister, economist, author, and co-founder of the Christian Social Principles in Economy (KETEG) programme, and Solène Tadié, French-Swiss journalist and European correspondent for EWTN News. In a rich and thought-provoking conversation, they explored the theme “Hungary and the New Pope”, reflecting on the enduring legacy of Catholic social teaching from Pope Leo XIII to Pope Leo XIV, and offering their perspectives on its relevance for Hungary and the wider world today.

The discussion inspired participants to consider the timeless principles of faith and moral responsibility in the context of contemporary challenges. As always, the Conservative Ladies’ Breakfast served not only as a forum for intellectual exchange but also as a place of genuine community — where inspiring conversations over coffee and breakfast lead to meaningful connections and future collaboration. The morning left participants with renewed motivation, valuable insights, and the joy of shared purpose.
