Buddhist Action Month: Climate & Ecological Emergency

The aim of Buddhist Action Month (BAM) is to encourage Buddhists to engage in social and environmental action, following the Buddha's teachings on compassion and wisdom. BAM takes place each year throughout the month of June. Buddhists are encouraged to engage in activities that promote social justice, sustainability, and the well-being of all living beings.

During Buddhist Action Month, Buddhist centers and groups organize various activities such as talks, meditation sessions, charity work, and environmental projects. These activities are intended to raise awareness of important issues and inspire Buddhists to take action in their communities. The theme for Buddhist Action Month changes each year to reflect current issues and challenges.

Overall, Buddhist Action Month provides an opportunity for Buddhists to put their principles into practice and make a positive contribution to the world.

Buddhist Action Month all year round!

BAM was initiated by the Network of Buddhist Organizations in 2012, and events occur worldwide. These links are devoted to how you can get involved all year round. Click ‘Download the Programme’ at the bottom of the page to view the official Handbook.
