Seedling lifting as a "barter" for Sani wines in Lesotho sponsored by Peter van Doorn
The tree is a metafore
On Friday afternoon, 14 November, we went ‘harvesting’ with a group of saplings. These young trees will be replanted somewhere in the Netherlands. Peter van Doorn made it possible for Sani Wines in Lesotho to plant another 2,500 new grapevine cuttings. These will produce new grapes in three years, allowing Sani to further meet the demand for his wine. As a token of appreciation, we as the leadership group organized a ‘sapling harvesting day’ on 14 November to help bring even more trees to the Netherlands.
Event wednesday september 17th 2025
24 participants joined us for this inspiring and memorable afternoon.
At the beautiful location hosted by Peter van Doorn, we discussed the upcoming programs for the two journeys:
"Experience Ubuntu" and "Ubuntu in Action", both scheduled for late January and early February 2026.
Details can be found on the respective travel pages.
We shared reflections and stories from previous Ubuntu journeys.
As part of the preparations for “Ubuntu in Action”, we hosted four live calls with our local partners:
Kananelo (Sani Winery)
Dr. Joseph (Roma University)
Lundy (Natal Wildlife Program)
Sekake (Trading Post Lesotho)
During these conversations, we discussed key themes and focus points. Together with our partners in Lesotho and KwaZulu-Natal, we will continue shaping the Ubuntu in Action program through co-creation.
The agenda also included a presentation and short discussion with Moh, CSR Director of a South African dairy company.
She delivered a powerful and moving talk about her Ubuntu-rooted upbringing in the north-west region of South Africa.
We ended the gathering with a delicious shared meal.
The next meeting is planned for mid-December—more information will follow soon.
