Churches and missions of Scientology throughout Europe are continuing several neighbourhood-level social betterment initiatives connected to human rights education, drug prevention and volunteer action. 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, programmes promoting news eu elections understanding of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and moral education based on The Way to Happiness. Together, these programmes reflect a constructive approach to public service within Europe’s pluralistic societies.
The article also highlights the Church’s campaign on European values and fundamental rights, 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 European principles visible in everyday life. Inspired by the work of Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard, these initiatives are presented as voluntary contributions to the common good across Europe.
