The Van Maren Show
Episode 18: An inside look at the United Nations' stance on life and family
Van Maren starts the conversation by asking about how Ruse got involved in the pro-life movement many years ago. The conversation moves into what exactly C-Fam does within the United Nations when policies are drafted. “You know, you get the document, you read the document. You identify bad language; you talk to delegations to try to get bad language out. You try to get good language in… And that’s pretty much what we do.”
If you are interested in this topic, C-Fam puts out Friday Fax, which is the only weekly source for what’s going on at U.N. headquarters on life and family matters.
The Van Maren Show is hosted on numerous platforms, including Spotify, SoundCloud, YouTube, iTunesand Google Play. For a full listing of episodes, and to subscribe via various channels, visit our Pippa.io webpage here. To receive an email when a new episode is uploaded, click here.
