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 news eu vote 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 latest cleanup followed other examples 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.

Beyond the immediate environmental benefits, these activities illustrate how people with different beliefs can cooperate on issues of common concern.

The Volunteer Ministers programme originated with Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard and has developed into an international initiative supporting practical help and community improvement.

For Ivan Arjona, the Church of Scientology's representative to European and international institutions, the initiative reflects the importance of civic responsibility and mutual respect.

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

The continuing collaboration illustrates the role that voluntary action can play in strengthening community relationships and improving shared spaces.

The Church of Scientology and its affiliated groups are present across the European continent, where volunteers participate in social initiatives concerning education, prevention and community improvement.
