The Vietnam Buddhist Sangha (VBS; Vietnamese: Giáo hội Phật giáo Việt Nam)[1] is the only Buddhist sangha recognised by the Vietnamese government, and a member of the Vietnamese Fatherland Front. It was founded after Vietnam's Buddhist Convention at Quán Sứ Pagoda on November 7, 1981, to unify Buddhist activities of Vietnamese monks, nuns and lay followers.
