title: Ubuntu Imbizo Community Assembly
|
|
description: >-
|
|
A Southern African community assembly rooted in the philosophy of ubuntu
|
|
("I am because we are"), where community members gather to deliberate
|
|
matters of shared concern. Found across Nguni and other Southern African
|
|
societies, the imbizo is a forum for collective discussion and decision.

steps:
|
|
- headline: Call the imbizo
|
|
description: >-
|
|
A senior member or chief calls the imbizo, announcing the matter and
|
|
inviting all adult community members to attend.
|
|
- headline: Open with ubuntu
|
|
description: >-
|
|
The convenor opens by affirming ubuntu — that the community is bound
|
|
together and that each person's dignity is tied to the others'.
|
|
- headline: Deliberate together
|
|
description: >-
|
|
Members speak in turn, with elders and those most affected given
|
|
particular attention. The convener seeks the points of agreement
|
|
that all can accept.
|
|
- headline: Decide collectively
|
|
description: >-
|
|
The decision is reached collectively, framed as the community's will
|
|
rather than the chief's. Dissent is acknowledged and recorded.
|
|
- headline: Bind the community
|
|
description: >-
|
|
The decision is pronounced in a way that affirms the ongoing
|
|
relationship of the community, even where some disagreed.
|
|
outcome: >-
|
|
A decision is made that carries the community's collective weight,
|
|
grounded in the recognition that each person belongs to the others.
|
|
practice: >-
|
|
Ubuntu is not a slogan but the premise — that no decision stands apart
|
|
from relationship. If the imbizo becomes a chief's pronouncement, the
|
|
form is broken. |
