Ubuntu “I am, because you are” – Zulu Humanist Philosophy
In fact, the word ubuntu is just part of the Zulu phrase “Umuntu ngumuntu ngabantu”, which literally means that a person is a person through other people. With its roots in humanist African philosophy, where the idea of brotherliness and love is one of the building blocks of society, Silent Scream Foundation has a team of devoted experienced professionals with years of service in Psychiatric and Mental Health Treatment and Counselling always ready to help others conquer depression and its related mental health challenge among Ghanaians.
