We are an African-led research and policy institute committed to reshaping institutional economics and public policy through advanced modeling, systems thinking, and dynamic analysis. Our work supports leaders, reformers, and citizens with bold ideas that aim to create equal opportunity, just governance, and sustainable prosperity for all.
We ask better questions. We model complex realities. We propose actionable solutions.
Ubuntu Think Tank is where research meets relevance. We use:
Systems Thinking to map the interconnected forces shaping economic and social outcomes
Game Theory to understand incentives, competition, and cooperation across institutions
Economic Dynamics to forecast long-term effects of policy, institutional design, and development choices
A Hub for African Policy Innovation
We curate research articles, policy essays, and data-driven insights from economists, scholars, and systems thinkers across Africa and its diaspora. We explore themes such as:
Inclusive growth and fair markets
Institutional failure and redesign
Behavioral governance and trust
Public goods, corruption, and enforcement
Resource allocation and social mobility
Fiscal justice and intergenerational equity
