"SEAL OF GOOD LOCAL GOVERNANCE (SGLG) NATIONAL ASSESSMENT: ENSURING EXCELLENCE IN LOCAL GOVERNANCE"

 On September 11, 2024, at 9:00 AM, at the Mabinay Teminal Complex and Convention Center, the Local Government Unit of Mabinay extended a warm welcome to the National Assessment Team for the Seal of Good Local Governance (SGLG) Assessment. The team validates the papers in accordance with the "all-in assessment criteria" under the direction of national validators LGOO VII Rumarheveson D. Bacal and LGOO VI Rudcelle Zalsos from Region 10. The validators also declared their validation of every criterion during the exit conference. With ten legally mandated criteria—including financial administration; health compliance and responsiveness; disaster preparedness; social protection and sensitivity programs; business friendliness and competitiveness; safety and peace and order; environmental management; tourism, culture, and the arts; and youth development programs—the SGLG is the main performance-based assessment program for excellence in local governance. The Mabinay Local Government Unit expressed sincere gratitude to the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) for Mabinay's cooperation and assistance in carrying out the Seal of Good Local Governance (SGLG) 2024.
