Scientology Volunteer Ministers Bring Their Yellow Tent to Bologna

Bologna's Piazza Lucio Dalla is hosting the travelling yellow tent of the Volunteer Ministers of Scientology, remaining in Piazza Lucio Dalla until 8 September.

Around 100 people attended the opening, including representatives of communities assisted by Volunteer Ministers after natural disasters.

Among them was Pianoro Mayor Luca Vecchiettini, who remembered the practical help received by his community following the 2024 floods. Restaurateur Fabrizio Lazzarini also described how volunteers helped clear his mud-covered restaurant.

Andrea Ferrarini, formerly involved with civil protection in Bondeno, recalled Volunteer Ministers helping communities following the 2012 Emilia earthquake.

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

Inside the Bologna tent, visitors can view photographs and videos documenting Volunteer Ministers activities while learning about methods addressing communication, education, relationships and everyday challenges.

Ivan Arjona, representative of the Church of Scientology to the EU, OSCE, Council of Europe disaster response and UN, described the Bologna initiative as a reflection of the role citizens can play in strengthening their communities.

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