The WOLE SOYINKA Foundation is a 501(c)(3) public charity whose mission is to bring writers, artistes, scholars, researchers and other creative thinkers together in an optimally conducive environment for reflection and creativity in Nigeria, Africa

Within its resources, the Foundation will play a creatively inspirational role in this global mission to explore, celebrate, and re-vitalize the contributions of Africa and her Diaspora to world civilization.

 
Something has to be done about those who debase others; who interfere with the human rights of those, to the truth.

We need to know the truth about what happens around us.
