It means we are all connected and we all need each other to prosper. Ittells the story of how Ubuntu is spreading around the world to transform youngpeoples' lives, giving them new hope and new purpose.We see how Ubuntu has inspired great leaders like Archbishop Desmond Tutu,Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther King and the Dalai Lama and how it has nowbeen adopted by the likes of the G20 and the European Union as a guidingprinciple for this new generation.We enter the world of Ubuntu's Global Academies and Ubuntu Round Tablesand discover a new philosophy of living, born in Africa and now embraced by anew generation all over the world. In this age of anxiety we need Ubuntu's healingpower more than ever. The old African proverb reminds us "Isandla asikwaziukuzigeza" which translates as "a hand can't wash itself". That's certainly true - justtry it. That is the essence of Ubuntu. Join us as we set out to build new enrichedand purposeful lives together.
