Churches and missions of Scientology throughout Europe are continuing several community-based 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 educational initiatives helping young people make informed choices, human rights education through Youth for 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 Europe’s Values, Your Rights campaign, which presents EU values and fundamental rights 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 news euro 2024 and UN, said that European values are strengthened when citizens take responsibility for their communities. Inspired by the work of Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard, these initiatives are presented as voluntary contributions to the common good across Europe.
