The event marks a significant step towards fostering a cleaner and more sustainable environment across the region.
The KALINISAN sa Bagong Pilipinas Program, aligned with the DILG's vision, aims to elevate public awareness and engagement in environmental responsibilities through effective waste management practices. The initiative strives to encourage local government units (LGUs) to make strategic investments in programs, projects, and activities that contribute to a cleaner, greener, and more sustainable future for all.
The program also calls for the establishment of a recognition system to commend LGUs with outstanding achievements in maintaining cleanliness and implementing successful waste management initiatives. This system aims to motivate LGUs to continuously improve and innovate in their efforts to create a clean and healthy environment for their communities.
The simultaneous launch reflects the unity and commitment of the 511 barangays in Tarlac to actively participate in the nationwide environmental campaign. The program seeks to instill a sense of responsibility among citizens, emphasizing the importance of proper waste disposal, recycling, and sustainable living practices.
The KALINISAN sa Bagong Pilipinas Program is expected to create a domino effect across the province, inspiring communities to work hand-in-hand on environmental initiatives that promote a healthier and more sustainable lifestyle. It is a call to action for everyone, from local officials to the residents, to play an active role in preserving the beauty of our communities and contributing to a nationwide effort for a cleaner and greener Philippines.
