Scientology communities across Europe are continuing various local social betterment initiatives connected to civic responsibility, prevention and community support. As reported in Scientology Communities Across Europe Highlight Civic Responsibility and EU Values, these activities include drug-prevention outreach through Foundation for a Drug-Free World, initiatives that make human rights principles more accessible, and community ethics activities inspired by The Way to Happiness. Together, these programmes reflect a practical contribution to European civic life.
The article also highlights the Church’s EU values education initiative, which presents key European principles in plain language, including the values set out in European treaties and human-rights instruments. Ivan Arjona, representative of the Church of Scientology to the EU, OSCE, Council of Europe and UN, said that community action helps make eu newspapers European principles visible in everyday life. Inspired by the work of Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard, these initiatives are presented as part of the Church’s broader humanitarian and social reform work across Europe.
