  • Ichikawa WHO Award 2004 Marikina
    Report of Visit to Marikina City Introduction In 2004, Ichikawa City received the “WHO Awards for Healthy Cities 2004”.This award was presented for the “Program about Diet Improvement and Nutrition at a Health Center” and the “Plan to Improve Smoker’s Manners with Cooperation from the Whole Community”, suggested in cooperation with Marikina City in the division “Promotion of healthy diet and physical activity through urban planning”. To date, Ichikawa City has entered an exchange program with other healthy cities in the world that are committed to futuristic endeavors. On this occasion, we thought that the effort in Marikina City serves as a useful reference and we decided to become partner cities. Prior to this visit, in May 2005, we received a mission consisting of four persons from Marikina City, and we held the exchange program to inspect Ichikawa City’s efforts as a health city, focusing on the diet improvement program and the Citizens Manners Act. The objective of this visit is to inspect and evaluate the specific efforts of Healthy City Marikina. The outline of Marikina City Marikina City makes up about 3.5 per cent of the gross area of metropolitan Manila, and it is located about 16 kilometers from Metro Manila. Its population is approximately 420,000. The young population consisting of children aged 5 to 20 in both genders is high, which differs from Japan’s aging society with fewer children. The gross area is about 21.98 square kilometers. The inner city is divided into 15 areas called Barangay and each Barangay has its own independent budget.

  • Earth Day Marks Need for Collective Efforts on Solving Crises by Ma
    UPPE PAGE BANNE EDITORI CARTOO 1 R AL N STORY STORY PAG LOWE Strategic Communication 1/1 25 April 2020 and Initiatives Service Page Date Earth Day marks need for collective efforts on solving crises By Ma. Cristina Arayata April 22, 2020, 7:18 pm https://www.pna.gov.ph/articles/1100699 Image grabbed from DENR's Facebook page MANILA – Every April 22, Earth Day is being observed to demonstrate support for environmental protection. But with the coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) pandemic plaguing millions of people around the world, collective action among countries and stakeholders is of paramount importance. For the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) Secretary Roy Cimatu, comprehensive and concerted action is a must. In his Earth Day message shared on DENR's Facebook page, he said survival is at stake in both Covid-19 and climate change. "The urgency of the need for concerted and comprehensive action, without waiting for the problem to peak or to impact millions more of people, is the same," he added. With the Covid-19 pandemic, Cimatu said now is the perfect time for people to ponder the need for collective action. "The damage from Covid-19 and climate change bring about destruction and chaos to any nation. On the one hand, with Covid-19, we are faced with an immediate gripping fear of losing more lives; on the other hand, with climate change, we are faced with rising sea levels, saline intrusion into aquifers, droughts, floods, and the results will impact billions of people, as well as biodiversity.
