Abstract: The review intends to assess the relevance of Ubuntu Models in child alternative care in an African setting taking the case of the Mama Mkubwa Model (MMM) in Tanzania through the Ubuntu lens. The specific objectives of the study is to 1) identify the linkage of the Mama Mkubwa Model in child alternative care and 2) to establish relevant recommendations for future studies based on the fact that most global south models especially Africa have been side-lined from colonial times unintentionally (Nyerere, 2011). The desk research served an important function in the identification, analysis, and presentation of the findings of the study through various activities including scanning the literature, analyzing secondary data, and creating a reference list so that all documents are organized and easily accessible to all team members (Kothari, 2004 & Rwegoshora, 2014).
