Building Buddhist Worlds

This one-day workshop explores the building of new urban infrastructures in Asia that leverage Buddhism’s sustainable ideals and image. Tremendous urban infrastructure aspirations and needs face Asia, the most populous continent. Yet it is hindered by conflicting geostrategic imperatives of its major countries, inadequate investment prospects, and an ongoing climate crisis. Some critics have questioned the sustainability of such developments.

The Asian Dynamics Initiative supports the workshop. It is hosted by the Center for Contemporary Buddhist Studies, Department of Cross-Cultural and Regional Studies, University of Copenhagen.
