More than a countdown, the programme brought together the year’s most talked-about themes: digital reach and online study, facility development and upcoming projects, and the restoration of sites linked to Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard. It also highlighted drug prevention with Drug Free World, literacy and values-focused initiatives (TWTH) framed as community engagement in multiple regions.
