Ubuntu Meets AI Governance
Examine the Ubuntu principle in the specific context of AI data governance.
“Ubuntu-aligned governance can improve trust, equity and sustainability in African AI deployments [...] Ubuntu explicitly invokes the principle 'I am because we are' when outlining continental aspirations for equitable data economies. National white papers from Kenya, Rwanda and Ghana reference Ubuntu when articulating intentions to ensure that machine-learning benefits are 'socially diffused' rather than 'concentrated in foreign capitals.' [...] If Africa's Ubuntu ethics were incorporated in AI ethics, this would strengthen values such as harmony, consensus, collective action as well as common good. — IJSRM, 'Artificial Intelligence Ethics Meets Ubuntu' (2025); Ziesche, 'Non-Western Approaches to AI Ethics' (PhilArchive, 2022); PMC 'Ethics and Diversity in AI Policies' (2022)”
