The Buddhist Societyof Western Australia is a Theravada Buddhist group based on the forest tradition of SE Asia. It was started by a small group in 1973 and has since grown to become the largest Buddhist organisation in Australia.

Our members encompass a wide variety of backgrounds, ages and nationalities.We have Australians from Anglo, Thai, Malay, Germanic, Sinhalese, Italian, Burmese, Vietnamese, Dutch, Singaporean, Chinese, and other backgrounds.
