what we do
Collaborating for Meaningful Change
Rooted in the spirit of Ujima—collective work and responsibility—and driven by a radical love for oppressed people, we collaborate with organisations to advocate for and uplift the rights and well-being of marginalised communities.
As a virtual and international organisation we are globally minded and multilingual. We excel in engaging across diverse cultural contexts, bringing a deep understanding of different social and cultural landscapes to our work.
The principle of collective work and responsibility.
Ujima is Kiswahili for collective work and responsibility. It exemplifies our approach to what we do – the fundamental understanding that genuine change will only be realised through collective effort and tangible actions.
A commitment to an ethics of care.
We adopt an interactive and participatory approach.
We create and maintain safe spaces.
We stay in our lane & we pass the mic.
We are committed to learning and (un)learning.

Their audit of the US UK Fulbright Commission’s staff recruitment and selection processes was detailed, comprehensive and impactful. The anti-racism training was both enlightening and thought provoking. Working with Ronda and her colleagues is energising and motivating. In sum, I cannot recommend them highly enough.
