His development of &ldquo;Engaged Buddhism&rdquo; integrated contemplative practice with social and environmental action.</p> <p>During the Vietnam War, Thich Nhat Hanh worked with war refugees and advocated for peace, leading to decades of exile. He established Plum Village in France, which became one of the most visited monasteries in the West. His &ldquo;School for Youth and Social Services&rdquo; helped rebuild villages bombed during the war and later became the Order of Interbeing, a worldwide lay practice community.</p>
