By Munisha on Mon, 12 May, 2014 - 00:20As we reported a few days ago, Singhamati is the new (and first!) Young Persons’ Co-ordinator appointed by Triratna’s European Chairs’ Assembly.

In February, even before she started the job, she undertook a piece of research exploring

their receptivity to religion and
a review of the Triratna Young Buddhists’ Project so far.

Listen to Singhamati’s 26-minute talk on her research, given at the Young Facilitators’ meeting in April.
