STRIVE FOR HUMAN POTENTIAL

​​ABOUT US 

Global Ubuntu began as an act of liberation and hope. It's founder, Sumaya Karimi, asserted and affirmed her power as an individual, leader, and community builder through its creation. Her experience as a member of an oppressed group in Afghanistan inspires and fires her efforts to support the social justice movements in the United States.

​Since its inception in 2015, the organization has helped Georgia residents discover and use their individual and collective power to change their communities for good through popular education and asset-based community development principles.
Global Ubuntu envisions a just and peaceful world where everyone is welcomed, valued, and feels safe to thrive for their highest potential.
Principles that we value:
  • Every discipline and profession is a potential contributor to  one’s life, organization or community.
  • Purposeful dialogue within families, schools, nonprofit organizations, corporations, and communities will increase the potential for learning from each other and enhance productivity.  
  • Everyone has the right to participate in decisions that impact their current and future well-being.
  • Everyone is a catalyst and leader wherever they are, e.g., in their families, at work, at school, and in their communities. They are the best change agents for their own well-being and the well-being of others in these circles.

Our Role in Facilitation

Picture
We believe our role as a facilitator is to: 
1. Listen
2. Identify common themes 
3. Facilitate the group so that participants feel empowered to be change agents
4. Help the group to identify the following: 
  • What are the issues? 
  • What are the assets in the group?
  • How can the group use both the issues/problems and assets for change? 
  • What are the next steps?
