International Buddhist Association of New Zealand (South Island) Incorporated

IBA is an organisation of monastic and lay Buddhists in which Humanistic Buddhism is practiced in everyday life. It is essentially an embodiment of cultivation that entails the participation in Dharma services and activities that are beneficial to society at large, with its religious characteristics and the essence of education and cultural activities. Our mission is to apply tenets of Humanistic Buddhism to benefit the society though promoting education, raising gender equality, providing medical services and emergency relief, and supporting environmental sustainability.
