What we can learn from the African philosophy of Ubuntu - BBC REEL

The African philosophy of Ubuntu has its roots in the Nguni word for being human. The concept emphasises the significance of community and teaches that 'a person is a person through others'.

Many view the philosophy as a counterweight to a culture of individualism.
