Even though Charles and Camilla's meeting with Pope Leo XIV is over, the pope's engagement schedule is still ongoing.
He is now taking part in the World Meeting of Popular Movements, a global summit that convenes representatives from many countries to address urgent concerns including employment, housing, and land.
The Paul VI Hall at the Vatican is the venue for the event.
