The appointment of Sister Simona Brambilla as the head of the Vatican office overseeing religious orders exemplifies Pope Francis' aim to elevate women's leadership roles within the Church.
Critics pointed out that the co-appointment of Cardinal Fernandez Artime alongside Sister Brambilla could undermine her authority, raising questions about the effectiveness of her role.
This historic appointment marks a significant shift in the Church’s hierarchy and comes after several high-ranking positions have been awarded to women under Francis' leadership.
The appointment is celebrated by theologians as a demonstration of the potential for women to take on leadership roles within the Church, showcasing how progress can be made.
