History

The journal was first published in October 1976. The title refers to the mission: Diwa was "launched to serve as an effective and suitable vehicle for dialogue and dissemination of thoughts and ideas, (in Tagalog, mga diwa) "^[1] Likewise, it was meant "to stimulate and promote scholarly research and make the fruit of such research available to a wider circle of readers and thinkers (mga kadiwa)".^[1]. The first article was on Nicolas Berdyaev written by Roderick C. Salazar, Jr., SVD.^[2]
