Interviewer:

do you describe Ubuntu to be?
Mr Mandela:
In the old days when we were young, a traveller through a
country would stop at a village, and he didn't have to ask
for food or for water. Once he stops the people give him

Respect
Helpfulness
Sharing
Community
Caring
Trust
Unselfishness

Ubuntu does

going to do so in order to enable the community around you,

life. And if one can do that, you have done something very
important which will be appreciated.
