THINK SANGHA
"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.
