PHThe Quezon City Government has announced that nominations for the 2026 Quezon City Green Awards are open until August 14, 2026. The awards aim to recognize innovative initiatives addressing environmental and disaster resilience challenges. This year, the evaluation process has shifted from a sector-based approach to a thematic one, focusing on the challenges addressed and the impact created. Entries fall into two categories: 'Green' (covering food security, green buildings, plastic waste management, and textile circularity) and 'Resilient' (focusing on disaster prevention, preparedness, response, and recovery). The initiative encourages collaboration across sectors and offers grants of up to PHP 300,000, media recognition, and integration into city programs for winning organizations. Semi-finalists will receive expert coaching, workshops, and technical feedback, while finalists will get pitch coaching and public recognition.
