A message from The European Buddhist Union

Dear Friends,


I hope that all is well with you, your families and friends.
 
I am writing to you about the future activities and work of the European Buddhist Union.
 We now have many amazing and interesting projects and programmes taking place within the EBU. Many of these projects are focused on our stated aim of bringing Buddhist voices in to European society.
 
You will see a list of some of these in the linked document.  There is a great variety of projects.


At previous AGMs we have discussed the need for more involvement from individuals belonging to member groups.
It has perhaps been unclear in the past as to what precisely is required in terms of support and help. In order to clarify I have included a list of projects and the number of volunteer helpers that we feel we require at present in order for this activity to succeed and move forward. This is a provisional list and of course in some cases more people will be helpful.
 Therefore the council is requesting that you send out information widely to people in your groups asking if they would be interested in being involved in any of these activities and projects. We  are not expecting EBU reps necessarily to take on these volunteer roles., though you may indeed like to. Rather we are hoping that we can bring in new volunteers, who would be interested in helping and working with the EBU, from within member organisations, be those individual sanghas, National bodies, or European wide Buddhist organisations.
