DESCRIPTION OF THE RELIGIOUS SITE
DESCRIPTION
The European Buddhist Union is an international umbrella association of Buddhist organisations and national Buddhist unions in Europe.
We envision a fellowship of European Buddhists bringing Buddhist ideas and principles into European society.
In 2008 the EBU obtained official participatory status with the Conference of International Non-Governmental Organisations at the Council of Europe.

HISTORICAL RELEVANCE
The EBU was founded in 1975 as an umbrella association for existing European Buddhist organisations.
The influence of Buddhism and Europe upon each other goes back much further than the 19th or 20th centuries: there has been much interaction between Buddhism and European culture since the beginning of Buddhism in India in the 5th century BCE.

INTER-RELIGIOUS RELEVANCE
The European Buddhist Union is guided by an international council elected by a general assembly of all member organisations. The present council was elected for 3 years in September 2017.
We bring together almost 50 member organisations from 16 European countries. We regret we cannot offer individual membership at present.
