The month of March has been an exceptionally amazing month filled with endless events and celebration. We celebrated international women’s day, commonwealth week, Ghana’s independence day (Which is also my birthday 6th March) and many other celebrations. I had the opportunity of speaking at the women around the globe event which was held to mark international women’s week. “Ubuntu” has continued to be a word that even in March is still being reflected on. The word can be translated “I am because we are” highlighting community and connectedness which is what I continually work towards in all my outreach and work engagements to help create a society where we can all unite for what we share and not what separates us. This lovely image with the hands of my friends illustrates this posing a question that a boy once asked an anthropologist of how can we be happy when the other is sad?
