“Buddhist” Intellectual Practice Tools for Integrating Spirituality & Social Change Work

Think Sangha is a socially engaged Buddhist think tank affiliated with the Buddhist Peace Fellowship (BPF) in the United States and the International Network of Engaged Buddhists (INEB). We use a Buddhist sangha model to explore pressing social issues and concerns. The group’s methodology is one based in friendship and Buddhist practice as much as theory and thought. The Think Sangha’s core activities are networking with other thinker-activists, producing Buddhist critiques of social structures and alternative social models, and providing materials and resource persons for trainings, conferences, and research on social issues and grassroots activism.
