Who We Are

Students at Ubuntu Learning CentreWe are an open learning centre that demonstrates and accompanies participants on the path towards more sustainable living. We are open to interested people who are looking for pathways to sustainability and healthier lifestyles. We invite participants into our lives as they join us in producing, preparing and eating a large variety of healthy organic foods. Together with our guests who come for various periods of time we are exploring a life that cares for our common health while having a light footprint on Mother Earth. We offer look and learn experiences, volunteer placements, student attachment, farmer and gardener grooming and other informal opportunities for experiential hands-on learning.

Where We Are & Our Origin Story

Ubuntu Learning Hub Trust was founded in 2020 and is the holding entity for Ubuntu Learning Centre which is located in Chikhankhila village, Chinkhuli area in the western part of Chongwe district, Lusaka province, Zambia. The Ubuntu Learning Centre initiative was born out of the need to help grassroot communities and especially marginalised groups such as women and youth respond to the growing environmental, social and economic challenges facing them.

What We Do

We walk the talk in transforming lives and landscapes and change mindsets and attitudes positively towards our natural and cultural heritages. We reconnect people to the land and to the ubuntu African philosophy. We help participants to develop a strong sense of self-identity and self-determination.

What We Offer Organic Food at Ubuntu Learning Centre

We offer flexible and informal learning experiences to all. We cover a whole range of lived experiences including organic farming, self-care, healthy cooking and eating, value addition, natural building and community development. We do not require any entry qualifications but neither do we offer exit certificates. We believe in learning for life and not for papers. Join us if you want to learn to live in harmony with nature and with others while living off the land sustainably and in abundance.
