Hi guys,

————————— DESCRIPTION —————————


“Iwa Lewa” is a Yoruba phrase that roughly translates to “Character is Beauty” or “Good Character is Beauty”. This phrase is often used to emphasize the importance of having a good character, moral values, and integrity.

In Yoruba culture, “Iwa” refers to a person’s character, behavior, or moral conduct, while “Lewa” means beauty or attractiveness. So, when combined, “Iwa Lewa” suggests that true beauty and attractiveness come from within, and are a reflection of one’s good character, kindness, and compassion.

This phrase is often used to teach children the importance of developing good moral values, respect, and empathy towards others. It is also used to remind adults that true beauty is not just about physical appearance, but about the qualities that make us human, such as kindness, humility, and integrity.

In essence, “Iwa Lewa” is a philosophy that encourages individuals to focus on developing their inner beauty, which is a reflection of their good character, rather than just focusing on physical appearance.
