QUESTION 1
1.1 The Concept of Ubuntu and Its Role in Everyday Life
Ubuntu is a Southern African philosophical concept that embodies values such as humanity,
compassion, and interconnectedness. The term, originating from the Nguni Bantu languages,
is often expressed as "Umuntu ngumuntu ngabantu," meaning "A person is a person through
other people." It emphasizes the importance of community, mutual care, and respect in
society.
Ubuntu plays a crucial role in fostering cooperation and social harmony. It encourages people
to support each other in times of need and to act with kindness and humility. For instance, in
traditional African communities, people assist their neighbors with farming, childcare, and
financial difficulties without expecting anything in return. This communal lifestyle reflects the
essence of Ubuntu. Terms of use
