Ubuntu is a skills development organisation focussed on the wholesale improvement of education in Africa. We provide a common lens for educational organisations to view change, network together and access skills within the African continent, that are contextualised and unique to the needs of African educators.
Through the sharing of targeted and bespoke consultation, and with a powerful focus on online outreach to communities where there is a thirst for development, Ubuntu believes that through a sense of sharing and communal effort, the conversation about education in Africa can change to reflect the diverse and dynamic needs of the newest generations.
With the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic, education culture has shifted the needs of the younger generation and the way that education institutions can meet these needs. A focus on the development of remote learning opportunities for educators has increased and the need for many institutions to access professional development from the wider education community has also increased.
Ubuntu is committed to providing the educational skill and expertise to help this happen. Ubuntu is further committed to making ours an accessible service by providing affordable, on-site support where possible, and by making use of online technology to engage regularly with partners in the quest for their development.
Ubuntu means “I am because you are.”
