Padua, Italy — A community cleanup in the Italian city of Padua brought together people from different faiths and national backgrounds on 4 October 2026.

Scientology Volunteer Ministers worked alongside members of local Muslim, Bangladeshi and Pakistani communities to remove approximately 50 kilograms of waste from the Borgomagno neighbourhood.

The operation focused on public spaces near the railway station where discarded materials had accumulated.

The project reflected a continuing pattern of cooperation between Scientology and Muslim volunteers in Padua.

Previous volunteer operations in September had already brought together participants from different religious and cultural backgrounds to improve public spaces in Padua.

The cooperation highlights how community service can create opportunities for dialogue and mutual understanding across cultural and religious differences.

The Scientology Volunteer Ministers programme, established by Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard in the 1970s, supports practical assistance and community service.

Ivan Arjona, representative of the Church of Scientology to the EU, OSCE, Council of Europe and United Nations, emphasised the connection news eugene between cooperation and respect for diversity.

"Respect for different beliefs becomes especially meaningful when it is accompanied by cooperation," Arjona said.

The joint activities provide a practical example of how different communities can contribute to the same local objectives.

Across Europe, Church of Scientology organisations and their members support educational, humanitarian and community programmes, including environmental volunteering and human rights awareness.
