African Philosophy in Ghana: Contributions to Global Ethical Debates
Abstract
African Philosophy has gained increasing attention in global intellectual circles, particularly for its contributions to ethical debates. The research employs a survey method with structured questionnaires designed to gather insights from philosophers, ethicists, and scholars in Ghana, focusing on contributions of African philosophical thought to contemporary ethics. Survey results indicate that over 70% of respondents believe African philosophy has significantly influenced ethical discourse in Ghana and beyond, emphasising themes such as justice, dignity, and human rights. The survey confirms the substantial impact of African philosophical traditions on global ethical debates, particularly within Ghana's multicultural society. Further research is recommended to explore specific areas where African philosophy intersects with contemporary ethical challenges in Ghanaian contexts.
