The Path to Gender Equality in Buddhism

The "rebel nuns" claiming their spiritual place and reshaping Buddhism

In Buddhist monasteries across Thailand, Tibet, Myanmar and the UK, women are systematically side-lined 鈥� denied ordination, rank, and respect despite teachings of universal equality. This programme follows courageous 鈥渞ebel鈥� nuns as they defy centuries of patriarchy to claim their spiritual place and 鈥� and forge new paths to reshape Buddhism for a more compassionate, inclusive, and awakened future.

A Vaticinate production.
