Warnborough College, Ireland, in collaboration with Prof. Raphael Nyarkotey Obu, proudly announces the publication of the landmark book “African Naturopathic Medicine: Principles, Practice, and Policy” on the official Warnborough College website.
This publication marks a pivotal moment in global health discourse, offering readers across the world an opportunity to explore African naturopathy from a truly African perspective. The book is infused with the Ubuntu philosophy, and grounded in the ontology, epistemology, and methodology of African healing traditions and naturopathic medicine. It redefines the narrative on African traditional healing systems and integrates indigenous knowledge with modern naturopathic principles.
Prof. Raphael Nyarkotey Obu, a Ghanaian naturopathic doctor, legal scholar, and renowned public health advocate, has dedicated his career to championing African traditional and naturopathic medicine.
