About Our Organization

Our Vision

Our vision is Peace for all. We envision a world free from all forms of suffering, and a world of perfect peace and true happiness.
We achieve this by taking a leading role in preserving and disseminating the Buddha’s teachings in Uganda and Africa so that all beings can experience inner peace, true happiness and ultimate freedom.

Our Mission

We are committed to preserving and disseminating the original teachings of the Buddha, spread the Buddhist culture of peace within the context of African culture, and develop the leading centre for Buddhist studies, meditation practice and research in Africa.

Our Core Values

Compassion: Caring for the well-being of all sentient beings is at the core of what we do.

Integrity: We apply all ethical values in all our activities and dealings.

Service: We believe in making a positive transformation in communities.

Transparency: We share all information about our work with all our stakeholders.

Peace: We cultivate peace in all our mental, physical and verbal behaviours to ensure a peaceful co-existence.

Wisdom: We practice ethics, mindfulness and concentration meditation that flows into wisdom.

Our Partners

Partners play an essential role to the achievement of our mission. This is why we work with players who have a strong belief in our vision of promoting peace for all. Realizing this vision, requires synergies, collaborations and working together as a team. For this, we have established both local and global partners who support our activities and delivery of our services.

Global Buddhist Relief (BGR) is an American-based organization where Bhante Buddharakkhita is a Spiritual Advisor and has co-led a series of walks to feed the hungry. The organisation supports “projects that promote hunger relief for poor communities around the world”. BGR is one of the sponsors of UBC’s Peace School and Compassion Care Centre.
