The Davao Writers Guild (DWG) is the only writers organization in Mindanao that is incorporated. Operating since 1999, it has been the home of literary writers in Davao and has organized literary readings and writers workshops in Davao City, as well as other areas in Southern and Eastern Mindanao. It has also published books through its Tubao Series, as well as individual literary works by Mindanao writers in its literary folio, Dagmay, which comes out in print and online.
DWG aims to provide channels for literary enthusiasts to craft and publish their works, organize activities for the advancement of new writers, and stimulate young Davao and Southern Mindanao writers to attain literary excellence.
