Scientology-Supported Programmes Address Social Needs Across Europe and Beyond
Throughout the early summer of 2026, a series of community and humanitarian initiatives brought together religious communities, humanitarian workers, young people and local representatives in Europe and beyond.
The activities addressed human rights, drug prevention, cultural dialogue and disaster relief. They took place in Spain, Italy, Ireland and Denmark, with related work in Nepal and Venezuela.
In Madrid, members of different religious and cultural communities gathered to discuss religious freedom, prejudice prevention and mutual understanding. The event also included cultural presentations that placed cultural identity within a wider discussion of respect and civic participation.
A related gathering in Milan brought members of the Sri Lankan community together at the Church of Scientology. Participants examined shared ethical principles and their role in community life. 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 educational booklets intended to support informed choices.
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 cultural celebration with messages of personal responsibility.
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 human rights, cooperation and peaceful social change. Youth for Human europe Rights organisations were also recognised for years of educational activity.
The most extensive humanitarian operation followed the earthquakes in Venezuela. Nearly 400 Scientology Volunteer Ministers and partner teams helped support affected families, rescue personnel and local communities. 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 distribution points, logistics and continuing community assistance. The response reflected the principle that effective humanitarian work requires sustained cooperation beyond the first days of a disaster.
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 multiple languages serving Europe and neighbouring regions. 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 European values become meaningful when translated into community action.
A fuller account of these activities is available in the original article covering the June and July 2026 initiatives.
Although the activities differed in location and purpose, each relied on education, cooperation and voluntary service.
