Zenji Nio
With Prime Ministers, Cabinet Ministers, Ambassadors, Mayors, Governors of Canada, India and across the world...
Zen has lectured on Buddhism, Samurai Bushido, Human Rights and Pluralism alongside many national and global leaders to make a real difference in a bi-partisan and non-political manner. Leadership and public service are themes that can cut across divisions and political aisles. Nio's work has therefore earned bi-partisan support from all those who believe in the spirit of hope and compassion.
