Brussels, Brussels, Belgium, 12th Dec 2024 – On the 76th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR), a noteworthy panel discussion at the Palais des Nations reaffirmed the significance of Article 18, which safeguards freedom of thought, conscience, and religion. The event, entitled “Law and Article 18,” brought together leading experts to discuss the significance of religious freedom in an increasingly diverse world.
At the core of this assembly was the pivotal role played by Associazione per i diritti umani e la tolleranza, which, under the presidency of Fiorella Cerchiara, champions the campaigns of Youth for Human Rights and United for Human Rights in Italy and brings together a full-day UDHR anniversary event to the United Nations. Fundacion Mejora, a co-organizer of the event and led by Scientology Europe representative Ivan Arjona, was tasked with putting together the panel on Freedom of Religion or Belief.
A Platform for Unity and Dialogue
The event, organized by Associazione per i Diritti Umani e la Tolleranza and Fundacion Mejora, demonstrated the efficacy of interfaith dialogue and collaboration as instruments for the protection of freedom of belief. Mr. Arjona, President of UN ECOSOC accredited Fundacion Mejora and Scientology representative to the European institutions and the UN, presided over the panel and established an inclusive and forward-thinking tone.
In his opening remarks, Arjona asserted that freedom of religion or belief is not merely a personal right, but rather a fundamental human right that intersects with all other human rights. “On whose authority is one to be told what one’s religion is?” The answer is that nobody but the individual in question has the authority to make that determination. It is therefore imperative that Article 18 is applied and interpreted in a broad manner.
During his tenure, the panel was able to bring together a number of distinguished voices. The panel included Prof. Maria d’Arienzo, full professor on Law and Religion for the University Federico II of Naples; Dr. Saba Haddad of the Bahá’í International Community; Dr. Boumediane Benyahia, an Islamologist; and Jonas Fiebrantz from ADF International. In their discussion, the participants examined the complex challenges and opportunities associated with the promotion of freedom of religion or belief on a global scale.
The Church of Scientology, through its European office and Fundacion Mejora, has a long history of advocating for human rights, engaging with international institutions to promote religious freedom. Arjona’s role serves to exemplify this commitment, as he is adept at facilitating communication between grassroots initiatives, faith groups, and global policymaking bodies.
This event served as an exemplar of Scientology’s capacity to convene a diverse array of stakeholders, facilitating a discourse that transcends cultural and religious boundaries. “Human rights require not just minor adjustments but rather a coordinated effort to achieve meaningful change,” Arjona stated, emphasizing the significance of collaboration in addressing global challenges.
The panelists’ contributions highlighted the crucial importance of inclusive dialogue in the advancement of human rights.
Maria d’Arienzo provided a legal analysis of Article 18, noting the inconsistent application of religious freedoms across jurisdictions. She underscored the necessity of asylum protections and more robust legal frameworks to address religious persecution.
Dr. Saba Haddad underscored the capacity of education to facilitate the advancement of inclusion and the overcoming of prejudice. “Freedom of belief is a prerequisite for a thriving and peaceful society,” she stated, citing the Bahá’í community’s grassroots initiatives to address caste, gender, and racial inequalities.
Dr. Boumediane Benyahia posited that diversity is a divine principle and advocated for its integration into educational and policymaking processes. “Diversity is not open to negotiation. Peace is not open to negotiation,” he stated emphatically.
Jonas Fiebrantz proceeded to delineate a series of actionable strategies for advocacy, with a particular focus on the success of ADF International in influencing international resolutions and legal cases. “Creative engagement is essential for achieving tangible impact for those on the ground,” he stated.
While each speaker contributed unique insights, a common thread emerged: the necessity for collaboration, education, and legal protections to uphold freedom of religion or belief.
The Scientology Model of Engagement
The Church of Scientology’s proactive approach to human rights advocacy is firmly grounded in its guiding principles, and in apply the precept to “Set a Good Example”, as called for by Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard in his non-religious moral guide “The Way to Happiness”. Initiatives such as the Fundación Mejora and the Church of Scientology’s active participation in Freedom of Religion or Belief initiatives demonstrate a consistent effort to participate and establish platforms where diverse voices can converge to address urgent issues.
Convening this panel represents a broader strategy of fostering interfaith dialogue and promoting shared human values. By leveraging its extensive global network and unwavering commitment to human rights, the Scientology organization has become a pivotal player in the advancement of freedom of belief for all.
A Call to Action
The event at the Palais des Nations served both as a celebration of progress and as a reminder of the work that remains to be done. In conclusion, Arjona offered an inspiring message. “It is imperative that all stakeholders—state actors, faith groups, civil society organizations, and individuals—recognize their respective roles and responsibilities. Together, we can make freedom of religion and belief a lived reality for all.“
As the UDHR enters its 77th year, the Church of Scientology’s efforts show the power of collaboration in defending and advancing human rights. By bringing together diverse voices and perspectives, Scientology continues to champion the principles of Article 18, ensuring that freedom of belief remains a cornerstone of global human dignity.

Chicago, Illinois, United States, 12th Dec 2024 – Today, most companies are struggling with their data. There’s more data than ever before, but it’s messy. It’s scattered across departments, full of errors, and hard to use. Beyond Key, a global leader in IT consulting and software development, wants to solve this problem.
Their Data Management Consulting Services are designed to help businesses organize their data better. These services fix broken systems, clean up data, and create a structure where data is easy to find, use, and trust.
By 2025, the world’s data creation is expected to exceed 180 zettabytes. That’s a massive amount of information. But according to Gartner, poor data quality alone costs businesses a staggering $15 million per year. Beyond Key’s services aim to stop this waste and help companies unlock the power of their data.
The Problem: Why Do Companies Need Help With Data?
Most companies operate in data silos. Marketing has its data. Finance has its own numbers. Operations? Something else entirely. These pieces don’t connect, and this creates blind spots.
Without a connected system, it’s hard for businesses to get a full picture of what’s happening. Decisions are slower. Opportunities are missed.
And then there’s bad data. It’s incomplete. It’s duplicated. It’s full of errors. Without a proper system to manage it, bad data spreads like a virus. On top of this, companies often don’t follow important rules like GDPR or HIPAA. This creates compliance risks and security problems.
How Beyond Key Fixes These Issues
Beyond Key follows a four-step approach to help companies manage their data. Their process is clear, personalized, and built for long-term success.
Discovery and Audit
First, they analyze your data system. Where is the data stored? What’s working? What’s broken? They look for hidden opportunities.
“Most businesses don’t realize how much value is trapped in their data silos,” says a Beyond Key strategist. “Our audits often uncover ways to save money or create new revenue streams.”
Strategic Planning
Once they understand the problems, they create a custom plan. This includes master data management (MDM) to unify your data and governance frameworks to keep it secure and compliant.
Implementation
Then, they take action. They migrate your data to advanced platforms likeSnowflake, Azure, or AWS. They integrate real-time pipelines and use AI tools to clean, monitor, and maintain data quality.
Sustainability and Optimization
Beyond Key doesn’t just stop after setup. They stay with you. They provide audits, dashboards, and training to ensure your data system keeps improving as your business grows.
What Makes Beyond Key Different?
Beyond Key doesn’t just fix broken systems. They help companies create smarter, future-ready data systems. Here’s what sets them apart:
Data Governance: They make sure your data complies with laws like GDPR and HIPAA while keeping security tight.
Master Data Management (MDM): They consolidate fragmented data into one trustworthy source for better decisions.
AI Integration: They embed machine learning into your data pipelines to predict risks, optimize operations, and improve efficiency.
For example, Beyond Key helped a healthcare provider create a patient 360 view. This unified EHR, claims, and clinical data into one system. It improved care coordination while ensuring HIPAA compliance.
In retail, they increased a company’s customer retention by 28%. How? By building an MDM-powered system that allowed personalized marketing.
Why This Matters: Data as a Strategic Asset
Data isn’t just a tool anymore. It’s a business advantage. Companies that use data well can innovate faster, make smarter decisions, and outperform competitors.
“Data is no longer just about operations—it’s about strategy,”says a Beyond Key spokesperson. “Our services help companies unlock the full potential of their data and stay competitive in an evolving market.”
Cincinnati, Ohio, United States, 12th Dec 2024 – In his paper, Justin Drake introduced details about the BeamSNARKs algorithm, an advanced zero-knowledge (ZK) algorithm that allows a prover to demonstrate the truth of a statement to a verifier without disclosing the underlying data or requiring any interaction.
For this consensus layer evolution on Ethereum, Moonchain’s implementation of BeamSNARKs is transformative in two significant ways: privacy and scalability. Regarding confidentiality, BeamSNARKs verifies transactions and calculations without revealing sensitive data. This capability supports applications such as confidential transactions and private smart contracts.
Beam Chain is a crucial improvement to the consensus layer for the Ether 3.0 era, a proposal to redesign Ethereum by Justin Drake at DevCon. The transition from the Proof of Stake (PoS) era to the zero-knowledge (ZK) era is expected to take several years, during which Ethereum fully integrates ZK capabilities.

FOXY is both the first memecoin from the Linea blockchain and a mascot token designed to build the all-important community spirit among users. So much so, the project has branded FOXY a “culture coin”.
If you’re a memecoin holder, you know community is the bloodline for a memecoin. If the community suddenly loses interest, there’s little hope for the memecoin’s survival. That’s why the FOXY team has built the token into a unique form of tradeable mascot, backed by tokenomics that support long-term engagement and growth.
Curious to learn more? In this article, we’ll walk you through what FOXY is, what makes FOXY unique from other memecoins, and how to get hold of the asset.
TL;DR
FOXY is the first memecoin on Linea. It focuses on community and engagement instead of speculation.
Linea’s Layer-2 blockchain boosts FOXY’s scalability, privacy, and cost-efficiency. It’s now faster and cheaper than Ethereum.
FOXY stands out from other memecoins by fostering a strong cultural identity and connection. Foxy, the project’s Fox mascot, symbolizes this connection.
FOXY can be purchased on both DEXs and CEXs. Assets can also be bridged to Linea through Linea’s official bridge.
FOXY’s tokenomics support long-term growth with community airdrops, liquidity, ecosystem rewards, and development.
What is FOXY
FOXY is the first memecoin on the Linea blockchain that combines fun, community, and culture in one token. But unlike the many memecoins that can pop up and fizzle out quickly, FOXY sets itself apart as a so-called “culture coin”.
This distinction means that FOXY is about more than trading — it’s designed to foster a strong community and cultural expression within Linea. If you’re wondering why this little fox has caught the crypto world’s attention, it’s because FOXY brings people together under a shared culture, and it’s doing so in a unique way.
FOXY is all about creating connections among its community, embodying what some would call a “vibe” that’s missing in many other blockchain projects. This coin, with its charismatic fox mascot, symbolizes the playful but purposeful spirit of the FOXY community.
FOXY also leverages the benefits of the Linea blockchain as a Layer-2 solution for Ethereum. This means it can handle faster and cheaper transactions compared to Ethereum’s main network, using zero-knowledge proofs and full compatibility with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). These features make FOXY accessible to more people while still delivering the kind of smooth user experience that Linea aims to offer its decentralized application (DApp) developers and end users.
This compatibility allows developers to easily connect FOXY to their applications, further spreading its reach across the Linea ecosystem.The concept of a FOXY culture coin is gaining attention because it taps into something that’s increasingly valuable in the crypto space: a real sense of community and fun.
Other tokens are mostly for trading or building your portfolio, but FOXY actively encourages its holders to join the FOXY community. As interest grows, FOXY could pave the way for more tokens focused on culture and connection rather than gains.
How does the Linea blockchain improve FOXY’s capabilities?
Being built on Linea, FOXY harnesses unique features that make transactions smoother, cheaper, and faster. Here’s how Linea gives FOXY an edge.
Layer-2 advantage
Operating as a Layer-2 network on top of Ethereum, Linea allows FOXY to offer low transaction fees and faster processing speeds. This appeals to memecoin holders, where speed and low-cost transactions drive community engagement and widespread use.
Full EVM Compatibility
EVM compatibility means developers can build DApps on Linea just as they would on Ethereum, making it easy to connect FOXY into the broader ecosystem. Developers and projects that are used to Ethereum can transition to Linea with minimal changes, making FOXY’s potential integrations more seamless.
Zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs)
Privacy and efficiency are key to keeping user trust high. Zero-knowledge proof technology improves both by checking transactions without sharing sensitive information. This keeps FOXY transactions safe and efficient without reducing speed. The technology also helps in scaling the network, allowing FOXY to support a larger community without clogging up the blockchain.
Alchemy Pay
In March of 2024, Alchemy Pay was added to Linea’s ramp platform. If you’re new to memecoins, setting up your wallet can feel overwhelming. However, services like Alchemy Pay make it easier to buy crypto because you’re using your local currency.
How do these features benefit FOXY holders?
The features outlined above don’t just sound good on paper — they bring many benefits to FOXY holders and traders.
Cost
Because Linea reduces gas fees, FOXY users save money on transactions, making smaller, more frequent trades possible.
Improved scalability
With Linea’s support, FOXY can scale to support a growing community without running into the same issues as Ethereum. Foxy’s scalability means more people can join and trade without worrying about price spikes in transaction fees.
Simpler for developers
Full EVM compatibility encourages developers to build DApps that connect FOXY, expanding its reach. This compatibility with Ethereum-based applications means that FOXY’s ecosystem is well-placed to continue growing as developers can use their existing tools.
What makes FOXY different from other memecoins?
FOXY stands out by prioritizing more than just quick gains and speculative trading. Instead, it focuses on creating a sense of community and cultural identity within the Linea ecosystem. Put simply, FOXY wants to be a long-term part of the blockchain space with a real purpose and a community-driven identity.
Community-centric approach
Unlike many memecoins that prioritize hype over substance, FOXY’s community focus aims to create a culture where holders feel they belong to something bigger. Instead of just holding a coin, FOXY holders are part of an engaging community that values connection and collective spirit.
More than speculation
FOXY isn’t just a trading token — it’s a culture token that celebrates its mascot, Foxy the Fox, as a symbol of unity and fun. This culture-driven identity gives it more depth, connecting holders to the values of the Linea blockchain rather than just short-term price gains.
FOXY as a “culture coin”
The term “culture coin” sets FOXY apart from its other memecoin peers. This label signifies that FOXY is built around shared values and experiences within its community. FOXY embodies a playful, inclusive vibe, making it feel more personal and relatable to its holders.
How to acquire FOXY
Whether you prefer decentralized or centralized exchanges, there are plenty of options to buy and trade FOXY tokens and be part of this unique culture coin on the Linea blockchain.
Decentralized exchanges
