Ubuntu Spirit

Ubuntu Spirit is inspired by Zulu proverb called Ubuntu : “I am a person through other people. My humanity is tied to yours.”
Ubuntu speaks particularly about the fact that you can’t exist as a human being in isolation. It speaks about our interconnectedness … 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.”

Aims:

- create space and opportunities for every young person to express and develop themselves according to their needs.
-introduce the theme of volunteerism, and generate a youth able to overcome stereotyping by promoting cultural diversity and dialogue specially among young people.
-Expanding the volunteering concept from the charity work to include another priority like local community development , environment and eradication of illiteracy.
