Wisdom of the Kouroukan Fouga for the Modern World

July 16, 2025
Healing a Broken World Series

This chapter explores the relevance of the Kouroukan Fouga, the ancient Manden Charter, as a foundational document for promoting equity, inclusivity, and social responsibility in today's digital economy. The authors argue that the principles embedded in the Kouroukan Fouga can guide modern societies in addressing contemporary challenges such as climate change, social injustice, and economic inequality. By examining the historical context and the lessons derived from the Kouroukan Fouga, the chapter emphasizes the need for a new social contract that prioritizes human rights, environmental stewardship, and community well-being. Furthermore, it advocates for the application of these ancient principles in current governance frameworks, particularly in the pursuit of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The authors highlight the importance of collaboration across diverse communities to foster a sustainable future, drawing parallels between historical wisdom and modern challenges in the quest for justice and equity.
