We lament the premature and senseless loss of eight precious lives that took place in Georgia. The rise in anti-Asian bigotry and violence cannot be viewed in isolation but must be seen as connected with bigotry, misogyny, and culture of white supremacy.
A project with BGR partner Action Against Hunger is training 1,800 smallholder women farmers in climate-smart agriculture, post-harvest management, and food preservation.
In a year when the Covid pandemic has largely kept us from gathering in person, hundreds of people across the United States and around the world came together for a series of online events to raise funds to feed the hungry, to educate children in need, to support sustainable agriculture, and to empower vulnerable women.

A BGR project with the Centre for Community Regeneration and Development (CCREAD-Cameroon) provides vocational training for marginalized women.
In 2020, as the Covid pandemic continued to make in-person gatherings unsafe, BGR replaced our annual Walks to Feed the Hungry with a new series of regional online gatherings. In the years since, these Buddhist Action to Feed the Hungry gatherings have become a beautiful opportunity for the worldwide BGR community to join together in the Dharma.
By Ven. Bhikkhu Bodhi • “The Parlous State of Poverty Eradication,” a report issued on behalf of the UN’s Human Rights Council, explodes the comforting myth that humanity is finally on the verge of eradicating extreme poverty.
By Ven. Bhikkhu Bodhi • Not only does the pandemic bring illness, death, and economic hardship to many, but wherever it spreads it sows the seeds of fear and discord. It is fomenting nationalism and racism and divides populations up on the basis of economic, social, and racial privilege.
By Paul Levy • The coronavirus is a living revelation that is dying to show us something about who we are and our place in the universe. What it is revealing to us is crucially important for us to know. Our very survival depends upon receiving its message.
