Back to Human (2019)

Unity in Diversity: Shaping Societies through the Spirit of Ubuntu

Back to human is about how our humanness is determined by our interactions with others in line with the Ubuntu philosophy: I am because we are. With our daily actions we form the ever-changing societies in which we live. People are very different and do not need to be equal in everything. But all people are part of a wider community, in which ideally each has its own, valued role and shares the same human dignity and human values with each other. So back to that simple measure of humaneness: Treat the other person the way you want to be treated yourself. Our actions today determine the change in tomorrow’s society. Which societies do we form? What makes you human?
