A recent gathering at the Church of Scientology eu newsletter in Milan brought together members of the Sri Lankan community for an event dedicated to dialogue, integration and practical values. The meeting highlighted The Way to Happiness and intercultural dialogue, using the common-sense moral code written by Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard as a basis for discussion.

Community representatives, families and young people reflected on the importance of respect, honesty, responsibility and peaceful coexistence in daily life. A particular focus was placed on younger generations, with Sri Lankan community leaders encouraging youth participation so that young people could become familiar with ethical principles that may guide future choices.

Ivan Arjona, representative of the Church of Scientology to the European Union, the OSCE, the Council of Europe and the United Nations, said such initiatives show how shared values can build trust across cultures. The Church of Scientology and its volunteers support social betterment initiatives across Europe, including education, prevention and community programmes inspired by L. Ron Hubbard.
