The DWS newsletter is a biannual publication created to preserve and share the story of our scholarship program through the experiences of the people at its heart. Within its pages, we gather the highlights of each semester: the growth and achievements of our scholars, their daily lives, key conference events, activities, leadership group initiatives, and messages from our Board. More than just a newsletter, our publication seeks to capture these moments in time—allowing us to look back and remember all we have built together, and enabling new scholars to learn about the path taken by those who came before them, find inspiration in their stories, and recognize that every achievement is part of an ongoing narrative we continue to shape.

We began in 2024 with 45 scholars, and today we have grown to over 120 scholars across three countries. This growth is also part of our story and is reflected in every edition, showcasing how the scholarship program has evolved alongside its community.
