France pays millions in reparations for church sex abuse victims
Original: Thousands of victims, millions in reparations. How France handled mass church sex abuse
France is moving to compensate thousands of victims of sexual abuse within the Catholic Church, with reparations expected to reach into the millions of euros. The effort follows years of revelations about widespread abuse by clergy and church officials, and it has renewed debate about institutional accountability, recognition of victims, and whether financial redress is enough alongside prosecution and reform.
Why now: Fresh reporting on France's large-scale reparations scheme for church abuse victims has put the issue back in the spotlight.
