Botho/Ubuntu Philosophy: Education From Childhood To Adulthood In Africa

摘要

African communities continue to experience social disharmony and disunity which result in their inability to independently address their political, economic and moral challenges for the communal well-being. This paper argues on the need for the mainstreaming of Botho philosophy in education provision in African schools in order to instill harmony and well-being among the African learners from a tender age. This philosophy is of paramount importance in facilitating political stability, economic security and good moral standards. It is also important for promoting personal and spiritual development.
