ULA invites the participants on an inner journey that challenges the way they see themselves and relate to others, becoming able, as Gandhi said, “to fight for the change they want to see in the world, through the Ubuntu Method. It aims to form leaders who are capable of caring, listening, trusting and promoting reconciliation by building bridges and promoting human dignity.
