/oo-boon-too/

Often translated as "I am because we are" or "humanity towards others,” Ubuntu is a reference to the ancient South Africa Zulu phrase “Umuntu ngumuntu ngabantu,” which translates literally as “I am because you are.”  

 

It is a philosophy rooted in oneness, humanity, interconnectivity, and shared success. It taps into humans’ natural need for connection to succeed and build a thriving, inclusive community.
