Pope Francis was widely regarded as the 'People's Pope'.
The first Latin American to lead the Roman Catholic Church-- with more than 1.4 billion followers worldwide.
He was often a voice for the poor...and faced fierce resistance to reshape the highly traditional and conservative Church.

But will his legacy translate into lasting change? And where does the Catholic Church go from here?
