About Damrivi

for Spiritual, Social and Economic Development

The Damrivi Foundation was set up in 2003 by a group of academics and professionals to establish a forum for social action guided by Buddhist insights and philosophy. The founders were inspired by the conviction that Buddhism provides a philosophy and a way of life promoting welfare of humankind and its harmony with environment. However that the great potential that lies in Buddhism remains to a large extent yet to be explored, articulated and actualized.
