Pope Francis has chosen as the theme for the World Communications Day 2025 a phrase inspired by a letter of St. Peter: "Share with meekness the hope that is in your hearts".

The Pontiff wants to point out how often "communication is violent" and prevents "the conditions for dialogue" from being established. For this reason, he invites everyone to "disarm communication".

By linking the theme of the Day with the Jubilee of the Esperanza which is celebrated in 2025, Francis affirms that "we cannot do without a community that lives the message of Jesus in such a credible way that it gives a glimpse of the hope that it carries, and is able to communicate the hope of Christ with deeds and words even today".
