Listen Deeply
Enhancing our active and compassionate listening deepens our understanding and offers more creative solutions.
Respect Others
Seeing through the eyes of others and adopting respectful communication leads to more peaceful relations.
Find Common Ground
Finding shared concerns helps us recognize that we are dependent and accountable to one another.
I AM BECAUSE WE ARE
What is ubuntu?
Ubuntu is a way of living that originated on the African continent and reflects our interdependence with others. “I Am Because We Are” is what Archbishop Desmond Tutu called “the essence of being human.” Around the world most non-dominant cultures have principles akin to ubuntu.
At Ubuntuworks, we understand that our separation is an optical illusion of consciousness. Our institutions too often reenforce these artificial divisions. By integrating ubuntu-based principles where we live, work, learn, and engage with others, we can build a more connected and peaceful world.
