Youth development programme using art, creativity, leadership and entrepreneurship to unleash a new generation of talented South Africans.
The Ubuntu Academy (UA) is a holistic concept of human development. It is about inspiration, potential and young people – young people with dreams, passion and hope. The essence of the mission is to empower young and to enable them to realise and unleash their inherent potential.
The UA is made up of coaches, partners, the core team, the founding members and a board, as well as a wider network of stakeholders such as greater Cape Town communities (Khayelitsha, Blikkiesdorp, Mitchell's Plain), families and the Western Cape Government and of course of the students.

We are a creative place where students gain skills and undergo personal growth. We want to systematically guide them to realise their inherent potentials so that they live and work as active and positively contributing citizens in their communities, countries and the world.
We strive to be a viable and replicable social enterprise. We strive to create opportunities with and for our students and all other stakeholders to grow a sustainable eco-system of arts, entrepreneurship and leadership. We co-create with people and organisations who share our values.
