Organization

Isokan Yoruba Ottawa is a socio-cultural group of Nigerian Yorubas that live in Ottawa (Canada's Capital) and its environs. We are a non-profit organization established to fulfill the following mission statements:

(a) Preserve and promote our cultural heritage, values and traditions as part of the Canadian mosaic.
(b) Protect and assist in the well-being of individual members in good standing within the association.


We have been embarking on a project YHI - Yoruba Health Initiative. This project is our way of giving back from diaspora back to our homeland. See the YHI page for more information.
