A resolution at the conference calling for an animal welfare subcommittee of the WFB Standing Committee for Humanitarian Services.
The
World Fellowship of Buddhists, established in 1950 to foster
cooperation between Buddhists of different sects all over the world, called on
humanity to extend compassion and loving-kindness to all living beings
in its final Declaration at its 26th General Conference held in South
Korea last month. This stemmed from Ven. Senaka Weeraratna of the
German Dharmaduta Society, who handed in a draft resolution at the
conference calling for an animal welfare subcommittee of the WFB
Standing Committee for Humanitarian Services.
You can read the full text of the draft resolution at lankaweb.com, available here.
