BAM is organised by the NBO in partnership with Triratna. The suggested theme over the last few years has been care for the environment, but many sanghas are promoting other themes too. To feature just one sangha:

Manchester Buddhist Centre’s Engaged Buddhist Kula have been busy organising various new activities and linking with existing ones.These include

• a session on Radical Ethics (Dharma in Action)
• A showing of the film “An Inconvenient Truth”
• A flashmob meditation on the streets of Manchester, followed discussions with the public to raise awareness of climate change and potential action.
• two local bioblitz events including a bat walk and mammal identification exercises over two days.
• Manchester’s Young Buddhists, the 18/40 Group, will be joining in and adding a few events of their own, with the possibility of taking on a local urban allotment.
