PADUA, Italy — Volunteers from different religious and cultural backgrounds joined forces in Padua for a neighbourhood cleanup on 4 October 2026.

Working together, Scientology Volunteer Ministers and volunteers from Padua's Muslim, Bangladeshi and Pakistani communities collected around 50 kilograms of discarded materials near the city's railway station.

Participants worked in an area frequently used by residents and pedestrians, removing waste and improving its surroundings.

The project reflected a continuing pattern of interfaith community service in Padua.

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

Such practical initiatives demonstrate that shared civic responsibilities can bring communities together without requiring them to share the same religious convictions.

Established by Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard, the international Volunteer Ministers programme encourages people to assist others and address difficulties in their communities.

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

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

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

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.
