European Scientologists’ 2025 Civic Year: Drug Education, Human-Rights Literacy and Community Service Across the Continent
BRUSSELS, Belgium — 31 December 2025 — Across Europe, the Church of Scientology civic actions maintains a continent-wide presence through more than 140 churches, missions, and affiliated groups in at least 27 European nations, alongside thousands of community-based social betterment and reform initiatives. Supported by a central European hub in Brussels serving European institutions and international organizations, this 2025 year-in-review brings together the initiatives reported throughout the year—reflecting an organized, values-driven commitment to strengthening communities, promoting human dignity, and supporting civic responsibility through practical, local action.
Throughout 2025, reports published by Scientology Europe documented a broad range of community-focused initiatives carried out by Scientologists and Scientology-linked volunteer groups. Spanning dozens of localities across Western, Central, Eastern and Northern Europe, the year’s reporting highlights sustained engagement in public-interest priorities, including drug-prevention education, human-rights awareness, ethical and civic action, and volunteer-led community support, as well as selected global humanitarian developments followed by European audiences.
Many of the initiatives described during the year draw on long-established educational and humanitarian programmes supported by Scientologists. These include Truth About Drugs materials distributed by the Foundation for a Drug-Free World; Youth for Human Rights educational resources based on the Universal Declaration of Human Rights; the Scientology Volunteer Ministers programme, which provides training and tools for addressing everyday and emergency challenges; and The Way to Happiness, a non-religious moral code authored by Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard, presented as a 21-precept guide used in community and civic settings. Together, these programmes form the practical framework through which local initiatives are organised and delivered.
A year anchored in European civic life
The year opened in Belgium with coverage marking institutional milestones in Brussels, where an anniversary event commemorated five decades of Scientology’s presence in the capital of Europe and fifteen years at Boulevard de Waterloo. The gathering brought together representatives of other faiths and civil-society actors, with Ivan Arjona-Pelado, Scientology’s representative to the European Union institutions and the United Nations, reflecting on the organisation’s history in Belgium and its public-facing social initiatives.
Early-year reporting also recognised volunteer work in Central Europe, highlighted international awareness campaigns addressing human trafficking, and provided a broader institutional overview of Scientology’s global activities entering 2025. Together, these initial reports set the tone for a year focused on continuity, public engagement and structured civic contribution.
Religious freedom, human-rights advocacy and public presence
As the year progressed, reporting reflected sustained engagement with questions of religious freedom, human rights and public participation. Coverage included Scientology’s involvement in international discussions on freedom of belief, the opening of new community facilities in Central Europe designed to serve as local hubs, and advocacy initiatives addressing human rights in the field of mental health through the work of the Citizens Commission on Human Rights.
Additional reports during this period underscored growing public interest and long-term presence in several European countries, alongside charitable and volunteer activities addressing social needs, including Sweden’s recognition milestone and community-facing engagement in Denmark. A commemorative feature marking the birthday of Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard situated these activities within the historical context of the movement’s humanitarian emphasis.
Prevention and education as sustained priorities
Drug-prevention outreach and youth education formed one of the most consistent strands of activity throughout 2025. From spring onward, reports described grassroots initiatives engaging young people, parents and educators, including local prevention outreach in Denmark, as well as coordinated national efforts in several countries such as France. These activities ranged from neighbourhood-level distribution of educational materials to larger public campaigns and community events, reflecting a sustained focus on early prevention and informed decision-making.
Public-space outreach at cultural and sporting events complemented this work, including Brussels-based engagement at public festivals. The year concluded with further reports of street-level prevention initiatives in major European cities, including work in Vienna, illustrating how prevention education continued as an active priority through the final months of the year.
Civic action, ethics and volunteer service in public spaces
Alongside prevention and education, visible community service remained a central feature of the year’s activities. Reports documented coordinated volunteer actions across multiple cities, including multi-city civic initiatives in the Czech Republic, addressing practical needs such as neighbourhood improvement, environmental stewardship and community assistance.
Particular attention was given to initiatives led by Volunteer Ministers and groups distributing The Way to Happiness in public spaces, highlighting ethical guidance and civic responsibility as tools for strengthening public spaces and local cooperation. Activities in Southern and Central Europe, as well as cross-border efforts, illustrated how these initiatives were adapted to local contexts while remaining aligned with shared principles, including Swiss civic action and community events in Lugano.
Human-rights education and international dialogue
Human-rights education constituted a third pillar of the year’s reporting, with recurring references to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as an educational foundation.
Local events across Europe focused on bringing human-rights principles into schools, associations and community forums, including a continent-wide focus on UDHR education, while international coverage from Geneva connected grassroots education with broader institutional dialogue around Human Rights Day.
Related reporting also addressed freedom of belief and coexistence, including recognition of voices for religious freedom, as well as public reflections on the role of belief in contemporary European societies, including commentary on Pope Leo XIV’s October prayer.
Community life, interfaith moments and international perspectives
Beyond structured programmes, 2025 coverage reflected the everyday community life of Scientologists across Europe. Reports highlighted interfaith greetings and cultural celebrations, seasonal events, national anniversaries and local ceremonies, including a Spain-focused milestone marking 45 years of Scientology’s presence, illustrating how community engagement extended beyond formal initiatives.
Additional features introduced European audiences to international humanitarian stories and media profiles, including Isabelle Vladoiu’s human-rights profile, Voices for Humanity with Catalina Maldonado, a literacy campaign featured on Voices for Humanity, and a Netherlands-based foundation training youth on media and human rights, underscoring the global dimension of the movement’s social outreach.
In a statement prepared for this year-end overview, Ivan Arjona-Pelado, Scientology’s representative to the European Union, the OSCE, the Council of Europe and the United Nations, said:
“Across Europe, trust in our communities is built through practical responsibility—helping neighbours, maintaining dignified public spaces, sharing factual prevention education, and ensuring young people understand their rights. These are civic values Europeans recognise, and they are strengthened when citizens act consistently and locally.”
Taken together, the actions documented throughout 2025 demonstrate a clear and continuous contribution by European Scientologists and Scientology-linked volunteers to public-interest priorities, including prevention, education, human rights and community resilience. Rooted in the humanitarian principles articulated by Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard and aligned with European values of responsibility and solidarity, these initiatives reflect a sustained commitment to strengthening social cohesion, safeguarding human dignity and supporting constructive civic engagement across the continent.
The Church of Scientology, its churches, missions, groups and members are present throughout the European continent. Scientology is a contemporary religion founded by L. Ron Hubbard, and its members support a range of community initiatives focused on education, prevention and community betterment. Scientology’s European public-affairs work includes engagement with civil society, international organisations and public institutions, and its recognition as a charitable and bona fide religion continues to grow in a number of jurisdictions.

New Health Physiotherapy and Rehab Guelph Shares Update on Services and Community Engagement
Canadians are increasingly choosing physiotherapy as a first-line treatment for pain instead of relying on medication or waiting for specialist care. Physiotherapy focuses on treating the root cause of pain, improving mobility, and supporting long-term recovery through guided exercises and personalized care. With growing awareness and demand across Canada, physiotherapy is becoming a preferred option for conditions such as back pain, joint problems, and sports injuries. Clinics like New Health Physiotherapy & Rehab in Guelph emphasize patient-centered treatment, combining assessment, therapy, and education to help individuals recover effectively and maintain an active, healthy lifestyle.
Guelph, ON, Canada, 7th Apr 2026 – Canadians are increasingly using physiotherapy as their first line of treatment to deal with their pain. Rather than depending on medication or waiting to see a specialist, Canadians are opting to take a more direct approach to deal with their health issues.
This change is an acknowledgment of the increasing awareness of the way physiotherapy works. It is effective in treating the cause of the pain and not just the pain itself. Physiotherapy allows patients to move and reduce pain in a safe and controlled environment. Physiotherapy has been shown to be effective for the treatment of common ailments such as back pain, joint problems, and sports injuries. It also increases the overall functionality of the patient.
In Canada, the need for physiotherapy is increasing. The number of physiotherapists in direct patient care is increasing steadily. This indicates that people are actively seeking this kind of treatment. This is also supported by public opinion. The majority of people in Canada understand the role of physiotherapy in improving health and reducing the need for pain medications.
One of the main reasons for this change is the emphasis on non-invasive treatment options. Patients may want to avoid long-term medication or a delay in treatment. Physiotherapy is an early intervention method that can help to avoid small problems from escalating into chronic health problems. Research has also shown that timely access to physiotherapy can help patients recover better and reduce healthcare costs.
Another factor is the changing face of day-to-day living. Desks, reduced levels of activity, and an older demographic all contribute to increasing levels of pain and reduced mobility. Physiotherapy helps in fixing these troubles by strengthening muscle power and improving body posture. This also helps to raise the level of physical activity.
The patient-centered approach is the focus of physiotherapy services provided by New Health Physio in Guelph. The emphasis is on accurate assessment, individualized treatment, and helping patients apply what they learn in their daily lives.
With this awareness, physiotherapy is no longer considered an alternative solution. Physiotherapy is the first and best step to heal and get back to their daily routines with confidence and control. For many Canadians, physiotherapy is the best solution for first-line treatment for pain.
