About the união budista portuguesa

The União Budista Portuguesa (UBP) is a non-profit religious organization rooted in Portugal, founded on June 24, 1997. Our main purpose is to promote Buddhist principles and practices, contributing to a more peaceful and wise society. It is important for visitors to understand that the UBP represents a vibrant community dedicated to spiritual growth and ethical living.

Our mission: peace and understanding

The UBP is committed to fostering peace and wisdom not only within Portugal but also on a global scale. We participate in initiatives like the International Buddhist Conference on Buddha Vesak Day 2026 to share our journey, insights, and the profound teachings of Buddhism. We believe in the power of dialogue and shared understanding to build a better world.

Engage with our community

While the UBP itself does not offer direct appointments for services, we actively support various Buddhist centers and initiatives across Portugal. We encourage you to explore our wider community to find activities and events that resonate with your spiritual path. Our aim is to connect individuals with resources that promote peace and wisdom.

"The dedication of the união budista portuguesa to promoting peace and understanding is truly inspiring. Their presence at the international buddhist conference is a testament to their profound impact."
