Together .. We Can
Registered in October 2018 under the Companies Act, 2013, Ubantu Foundation is a social organisation rooted in the African philosophy of Ubuntu — a belief in the universal bond of sharing that connects all humanity.
We work to utilise the power of community capacity, social entrepreneurship, and sustainable technologies through an integrated and participatory approach for social development and environment conservation in rural and tribal areas across India.
"I am because we are — and since we are, therefore I am."
Ubuntu PhilosophyOur Vision
Empowering rural and tribal communities through sustainable development and environmental conservation.
Our Mission
An integrated participatory approach combining social entrepreneurship with community capacity building.
Our Genesis
The Foundation evolved from extensive community work by Director Sumit Singh in Jodhpur and Goa — including the celebrated Smart Colony – Smart Ward Initiative, appreciated by the Government of Rajasthan and recommended to all municipalities in 2016.
His work with women self-help groups producing biodegradable sanitary pads, and being invited by the Government of Goa to replicate urban governance innovations, laid the groundwork for Ubantu Foundation's integrated, community-driven model.
