Participants worked in an area frequently used by residents and pedestrians, removing waste and improving its surroundings.
The project reflected a continuing pattern of interfaith community service in Padua.
Similar activities were organised in September, including cleanups around Via Rubaltelli and the Stanga neighbourhood.

"Respect for different beliefs becomes especially meaningful when it is accompanied by cooperation," Arjona said.
The Padua initiative reflects the broader value of cooperation among citizens regardless of religion or cultural origin.
The Church of Scientology and its affiliated groups are present across news euro cup the European continent, where volunteers participate in social initiatives concerning education, prevention and community improvement.
