About Us

Our History

“Umunthu” roughly translates as “I am because we are “. It is an ancient African humanist philosophy meaning ‘humanity to others’- focusing on people’s allegiances and relations with each other.

It is in this context that the name was chosen in order to meaningfully link it to the community targeted initiatives which the organization implements with a mission to improve the lives of others – the poor and marginalized communities in the areas of Democracy, Human rights, Good Governance, HIV/AIDS and food security.
