Ubuntu Learning Circle

The Fifth Element partnered with the Learning Planet Institute to bring together a working group of committed actors who are already active in remarkable learning and sustainability initiatives in Africa.

Together, we:

  • Addressed African challenges from African contexts and cultures.
  • ​Learnt from African wisdom (Ubuntu, Ukama, Omenala, Iwa, Suban, Bumuntu and other concepts and practices), which has the potential to nurture modern knowledge and reconcile it with how life works.
  • Created the conditions for the emergence in Africa of new processes and initiatives towards place-based equitable human wellbeing within a healthy biosphere.
