City of Ubuntu, Sanki, Cameroon

Education + Cultural Exchange + Sustainability.

Urban design, architecture, logo, website, etc. for the educational project ‘City of Ubuntu’ in the west of Cameroon, in a region in the savannah, near the village of Sanki, in collaboration with the Piarist Order, ‘blasinafrica’ (Bring Light And Smile in Africa) and ICALDE (Institut Calasanz Du Droit À l'Éducation). The 12-hectare property is located in the Bangangté area (about 200 kilometres from Yaoundé), about an hour's walk from the nearest village.

Over the next few years, a prototypical development is to be built here from several points of view, offering the local population a special point of identification and a contact point, and forming a place for the exchange of knowledge and culture with supra-regional and international travellers.

The first buildings required for infrastructure (House 1, well, etc.) have already been realised, and shared accommodation is currently being planned for the next construction phase.
