Now, in Rome, he’s researching how communication can bring divided communities back into relationship. In this episode, David DiNapoli sits down with Fr. Anselme Ludiga, a priest from the Democratic Republic of the Congo, now pursuing doctoral studies in social and institutional communication at the Pontifical University of the Holy Cross in Rome. Fr. Anselme speaks about his vocation, his work as a peace mediator, and the research he hopes to carry back home. Note: Fr.
