A European Network for Buddhist Values: Join Us in Creating Meaningful Change

Under the guidance of the European Buddhist Union (EBU), we envision a society where Buddhist principles resonate deeply within civil life, government, and culture. Together, we aim to bring compassion, mindfulness, and wisdom into Europe’s most pressing challenges. Your support as a member is the key to realizing this vision.

The EBU is more than an organization—it is a dynamic and inclusive network that unites Buddhists from diverse traditions across Europe. Supporting us means strengthening initiatives that embody Buddhist values in action:

  • Interfaith Dialogue: Collaborative efforts to build bridges between faiths, fostering mutual respect and shared solutions to societal challenges.
  • Chaplaincy Network: A vital initiative that supports chaplains in offering spiritual care to individuals across diverse settings. This network creates a platform for sharing resources, training, and best practices, enabling chaplains to bring compassion, wisdom, and mindfulness to their work with communities and individuals in need.
  • Teach Peace: An educational initiative aimed at transforming schools into beacons of human well-being and social cohesion. By empowering teachers to embody and impart skills for peace and togetherness, we inspire students to follow their example, thereby transforming the culture and learning environment of entire schools.
  • EcoDharma: A program promoting environmental sustainability through a Buddhist lens.

Beyond these, the EBU represents European Buddhists in high-level discussions with the European Parliament, European Commission, and the Council of Europe, addressing topics such as ethics in artificial intelligence, religious freedom, and the role of spiritual values in modern governance.
