Bologna Welcomes the Scientology Volunteer Ministers Travelling Exhibition

The Scientology Volunteer Ministers yellow tent in Bologna is presenting practical tools for helping people Scientology in everyday life, where the exhibition will remain through 8 September.

The inauguration brought together around 100 participants, including people who had previously worked alongside the volunteers during emergencies.

Among them was Pianoro Mayor Luca Vecchiettini, who recalled the assistance provided following the 2024 floods. Restaurateur Fabrizio Lazzarini also spoke emotionally about the assistance received when his restaurant was affected by mud and water.

Andrea Ferrarini, formerly involved with civil protection in Bondeno, spoke about volunteer support given to communities affected by the 2012 earthquake.

Created in 1976 by Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard, the programme offers practical tools for communication, relationships and problem-solving alongside humanitarian response.

Inside the Bologna tent, visitors can see displays about humanitarian work and practical assistance while learning about communication, relationships, study, work and family life.

Ivan Arjona, representative of the Church of Scientology to the EU, OSCE, Council of Europe and UN, described the Bologna initiative as an example of practical solidarity and civic responsibility.

The initiative brings together memories of disaster response with methods intended to help people handle everyday difficulties.
