Why has liberalism not worked out in Africa the way it did in Europe? Liberal values like democracy, individual rights and free markets may seem universal – but, as Nigerian philosopher Gabriel Asuquo argues, their roots are distinctly European, drawing on an individualist conception of the self, community and land that cannot be exported wholesale to the African context. Building a postcolonial future that will serve Africa’s people means looking past the ’borrowed blueprints’ of European thought and towards African philosophical traditions shaped by a relational philosophy favouring consensus, communal balance and social participation.

Liberalism hasn’t delivered on its promises in Africa. The alternative will be found in ideas rooted in Africa’s own soil

Leadership requires energy. It is a meshwork and entanglement that requires a quality of attention to the many strands of energy that pull through - each of us and every system- and remains illusive, overwhelming, or even unseen, until that muscle of attention and skilled practice is honed. It’s an inside job. We can create the necessary and wonderful ecosystems outside: and without the inner ecosystem of healthy, strategic, wise capacity and skills : the outside simply becomes a monument to what is possible or to our deepest failures of attention and grace.
Meet this team today as we grapple with this from many points of view and suggest some ways that are working. See you there. 💛🔆

WHY JOIN?

Join our distinguished international speakers as we reflect on the current state of the world, humanity and individual human experience and on what role leaders could play in creating positive change for all stakeholders - from individuals to communities, from cities to regional ecosystems, from society overall to all forms of life on our planet.

While many challenges persist and new ones arise on the individual, collective and ecosystemic level, our mission is to find ways to deal with them while facilitating evolution of humanity and each individual. So we’ll look into ways and principles of how such conscious evolution could be facilitated by each one of us regardless of our geography, social status, professional affiliation, wealth, or age. How each person could be empowered to provide authentic leadership and enjoy being a servant leader in their specific circumstances.

We will also review cutting-edge programs for authentic leadership development worldwide - from Global Mayors Academy for city leaders in 10.000 cities to the Future Leaders program with a mission of offering young people key knowledge and skills for a happy, conscious and creative life (co-designed by LCE, Ecocivilisation, Youth x Youth and other partners).

The session will offer inspiration, key principles and tools for authentic leadership development as well as an opportunity to become a member of a global movement that shapes the future of leadership on our planet. You could also become an ambassador in your city or country for Future Leaders program that is scheduled for a global launch in September 2025.

Why do we need to cultivate consciousness around who we are, what we do, say and are becoming?
Ubuntu, Integral, Transformation, Unity, Humaneness, Being, Becoming are all WORDS without meaning, used to impress if they are not accompanied by REAL action and a lived Practice.
What makes us turn away from our self - that self that is connected to source, to kindness, to intelligence, to discernment and wisdom?
This falling away into our human 'dark matter' where no 'life' or vitality can enter is when we are most divided: inside our selves.
It is where atrocities can be performed, where we split ourselves off from our heart and the hearts of others.
Shocked by many stories in the world today: one surpassing the other and blowing it off the news reels as journalists bound around looking for evidence that shows how disconnected we are. They don't have to look far do they? It lands on our South African doorstep, in Somalia, in the Middle East, in Ukraine, in USA, S. America, Korea - the list goes on.

Where do you want to be? And what are the practices and company you are keeping, that can support you staying awake?
If Ubuntu refers to the 'being and becoming' of wholeness: to affirm one's humanity by recognising the humanity in others and on that basis establish humane relationships with them. The fundamental ethical, social and legal judgement of human worth and human conduct is based upon UBU- NTU meaning the emergence of our humanity.

It requires consciousness, it requires integration, it requires our humane-ness as part of the whole cosmos.
