Lion’s Roar: Speaking up in a Troubled World - Buddhist Action Month 2021
Kaspa Thompson from the Network of Buddhist Organisations is setting up Buddhist Action Month 2021 and writes:
There are many troubles in the world. Much of the world lives in poverty. There is violence against individuals and groups of people. The climate crisis continues to unfold causing extreme weather events. We are destroying habitats. We are in the midst of a global pandemic.
As Buddhists we can make a compassionate response. Join me in June 2021 for Lion’s Roar: Speaking up for a Troubled World.
This year BAM includes a Europe Day of Action on June 5th. Get the action pack for that below.
Here’s a short video of me introducing this year’s theme.
