Scientology and some of its social activities in the last 2 months...

Scientology-Supported Programmes Address Social Needs Across Europe and Beyond Across June and July 2026, a series of community and humanitarian initiatives brought together volunteers, educators, public officials and civil-society organisations in Europe and beyond. The activities focused on education, social responsibility, intercultural understanding and humanitarian assistance. They took place in cities including Madrid, Milan, Dublin and Copenhagen, as well as communities in Nepal and Venezuela. In Madrid, members of different religious and cultural communities gathered to discuss diversity, freedom of religion and peaceful coexistence. The event also included cultural presentations that showed how music, dance and personal experience can overcome stereotypes. A related gathering in Milan brought members of the Sri Lankan community together at the Church of news eu parlament Scientology. Participants examined ways in which families can preserve cultural traditions while contributing to wider society. The programme drew on principles from The Way to Happiness, the non-religious moral guide written by Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard. In Ireland, Scientology volunteers brought drug-prevention information to the Clondalkin Festival. Families and young people were able to review materials designed to help prevent drug abuse before it begins. Drug education also formed part of a multicultural pageant held at the Church of Scientology & Community Centre of Dublin. The event welcomed hundreds of visitors and contestants representing several countries. It combined professional achievement, traditional performances and drug-prevention awareness. Human-rights education was another central theme. A Scientology Network documentary featured Rahul KC, president of Youth for Human Rights Nepal, and described how his work developed from early youth activism into a sustained human-rights campaign. His activities are based on teaching the 30 articles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in a form that young people and families can understand. In Copenhagen, diplomats, NGO representatives, political figures and community leaders gathered to mark Nelson Mandela International Day. The programme addressed equality, dignity and discrimination in the workplace. Youth for Human Rights organisations were also recognised for their long-term contribution to public awareness. The most extensive humanitarian operation followed the earthquakes in Venezuela. Nearly 400 Scientology Volunteer Ministers and partner teams helped coordinate emergency goods, transport and specialist assistance. European Scientologists contributed aid, while volunteers from Spain travelled to Venezuela to assist directly. The work continued as the emergency shifted from immediate rescue to recovery. Volunteers helped with the movement of essential goods and support for displaced families. The response reflected the principle that effective humanitarian work requires careful coordination so that aid reaches the people who need it. In Denmark, New Era Publications International received an HP Indigo award recognising its printing volume. The publishing house produces works by L. Ron Hubbard in dozens of languages for international distribution. Its production capacity supports access to Scientology religious texts, educational materials and humanitarian publications across a wide geographic area. Ivan Arjona, representative of the Church of Scientology to the EU, OSCE, Council of Europe and United Nations, said the initiatives demonstrated how human dignity and solidarity can be expressed through practical service. A fuller account of these activities is available in the complete report on human-rights, prevention and community-support activities. Taken together, the projects show how local action can contribute to wider social goals.
