Buddhist Eco-Chaplaincy Program offers basic Buddhist training in the wisdom and skill needed to be a Buddhist Environmental Chaplain, i.e., those who work to support people in developing healthy, compassionate, and mutually supportive relationships with each other and with the natural world. It will offer experience-based activities and contemplative practices that deepen individuals’ own relationships with the natural world, as well as provide them with skills to be spiritual caregivers, helping others (re)connect with nature and face contemporary socio-environmental crises with wisdom and compassion. Program runs from August 2024 through to May 2025.

We are committed to forming a cohort that is truly representative of the full diversity of our society and aspire to have 30-40% of the participants be BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color). BIPOC applicants are strongly encouraged to apply and scholarships are available for those in need.
