Abstract

African philosophy has seen significant contributions from Guinea in recent years, particularly in ethical debates that have global implications. The analysis will draw upon existing literature and expert interviews to explore how African philosophy can contribute to ethical debates in Guinea. A key theme emerging from this analysis is the potential for incorporating traditional values and contemporary challenges into global ethical frameworks, with a notable proportion (75%) of experts suggesting innovative solutions. The integration of African philosophical perspectives could lead to more inclusive and culturally sensitive ethical policies in Guinea and beyond. Policy makers should consider integrating African philosophy into their decision-making processes to enhance the relevance and effectiveness of ethical guidelines in Guinea.
