Augusto Paolo Lojudice (born 1 July 1964) is an Italian prelate of the Catholic Church who has been Archbishop of Siena-Colle di Val d'Elsa-Montalcino since 2019.

[2] His pastoral assignments were in the rougher neighborhoods, neglected by municipal services, with poorer populations and higher crime rates.

[4] As he developed his own experience with migrant living conditions beginning in 2006, he brought seminarians to their camps, which were managed by the city government.

He then led investigations that revealed the misappropriation of funds meant to improve living conditions in the camps.

[1] He has decried the anti-immigrant sentiment promoted by "certain mobsters" and asserted that "most Romans have a fundamentally charitable attitude and are not easily influenced".

[5] On 25 October 2020, Pope Francis announced he would raise him to the rank of cardinal at a consistory scheduled for 28 November 2020.

[11] At that consistory, Pope France made him Cardinal-Priest of Santa Maria del Buon Consiglio.
