Kukuza, Umunthu ndi Kusinthika(Empowerment, Integrity and Transformation)
Transform citizens into self-sustaining and trustworthy human capital for personal, social and economic development through provision of relevant and ethical education and training.
Jubilee University sees Umunthu not as a doctrine or a rule but rather a way of life in which one has to learn to live humanely with others in their community, country, and the world at large. Umunthu is not a device for instrumental judgment but rather a social process, which guides how people think, make choices, act and speak. The major goal of Jubilee University is to produce a complete individual; one who is knowledgeable but also cultured, respectful, integrated, sensitive and responsive to the needs of the family, neighbours, country, and the world. Umunthu aims at inculcating attitudes and values capable of integrating students as useful citizens into the wider society.

Many great philosophers have argued that, education or knowledge or intelligence without good character and values is useless because it only creates clever devils. In Nelson Mandela’s words, “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.” However, effective and beneficial change is unlikely to be realised when education fails to inculcate enough values to prevent social evils such as corruption, intolerance, individualism, and greed from taking root in individuals. Jubilee University therefore, is founded on the principles of Umunthu, whose focus is educating the whole individual, that is; the mind, the hand and importantly the heart. In this regard, the mind is knowledge, the hand is the practical application and the heart comprises the right values and attitude that build the individual character.
