International Institute of Thought, Doctrine and Action

Tuzafrika: the Way of « We »

We-ism: think, bond, serve.

TUZAFRIKA is an international institute of thought, doctrine and action that translates the doctrine of We-ism, "think, bond, serve," into concrete methods of governance, mediation and co-development — among the Institute's twelve fields of action — in service of the peoples of the Great Lakes region and beyond.

Training, supporting and equipping the actors who turn the bond between human beings into a lever for action, in service of societies and states.

The Problem

The world organises itself around the « I ». We propose to rebuild the « We ».

Individualism promised freedom; at times it has produced loneliness. Lives lived side by side, without a shared destiny or shared memory. Another way is possible.

The Doctrine

Three pillars, one Way

I. Useful-Existence

I matter because I serve.

The dimension of being

II. The Knot of Destinies

Our destinies are bound together.

The dimension of relationship

III. Awakened Service

Acting for real.

The dimension of action
