Could we be heading to an EU without priests? In Poland, Catholicism still dominates despite a drop in the number of nuns and priests, ARTE Europe Weekly finds out why. We also visited Portugal, where more than a million young Catholics from around the world joined the Pope for the week-long celebrations of World Youth Day.

This weekly News programme is produced by the Franco-German broadcaster ARTE and made available in 8 languages through a European media partnership formed by El País (ES), Gazeta Wyborcza (PL), Internazionale (IT), Kathimerini (GR), Le Soir (BE), Telex (HU) in coordination with ARTE. The project has been made possible with EU funding within the framework of the „European Media Platforms” preparatory action.
