What does it mean to create a society where everyone has the opportunity to thrive?
Join us for an important conversation as the Optentia Research Unit hosts a one-day colloquium:
Reimagining Human Flourishing: Capabilities, Ubuntu, and Decolonisation in South Africa
This thought-provoking event will bring together researchers, practitioners, policymakers, and community voices to explore how we can advance agency, justice, and human flourishing in South Africa.
Together, we will:
✨ Connect ideas about human development with real-world change.
✨ Explore the value of indigenous and marginalised knowledge systems.
✨ Discuss practical reforms in education, governance, policy, and social systems.
✨ Generate solutions grounded in South African realities and experiences.
Whether you are interested in social justice, education, development, policy, or community transformation, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.
Registration details will be announced soon. In the meantime, save the date and share it with your colleagues, networks, and friends.
