----- Why this word? -----
Ubuntu is a Bantu word meaning one cannot exist without others. It refers to the African sense of community.
Archbishop Desmond Tutu describes the African philosophy ubuntu as follows: "Ubuntu speaks particularly about the fact that you can't exist as a human being in isolation. It speaks about our interconnectedness. You can't be human all by yourself, and when you have this quality – Ubuntu – you are known for your generosity. We think of ourselves far too frequently as just individuals, separated from one another, whereas you are connected and what you do affects the whole World. When you do well, it spreads out; it is for the whole of humanity."
