Scope and content
Most of the material in this series documents Professor Sugunasiri’s involvement with Buddhist, interfaith, multicultural, language, peace, and poverty issues, organizations, and events. He was instrumental in founding a number of the Buddhist organizations and initiatives and over time assembled a large amount of material relating to them, along with flyers, notices, newsletters, posters, and other material on many that he was in contact with but not involved in their organizing activities. There are also files on some individuals related to various activities.
This series also contains files on conferences that Professor Sugunasiri attended but at which he did not give addresses or other forms of presentation.
The files contain a variety of correspondence, minutes of meetings, notes, memoranda, newsletters and other small publications, programs, posters, and ancillary material.
