Excellence in the ICT for Good Governance (eGOV) Awards Program

eGOV Awards

The eGOV Awards is an annual search for best practices in Philippine local government units in utilizing information and communications technology (ICT) to effectively and efficiently deliver its public services directly to its constituents and to its business stakeholders. The National ICT Confederation of the Philippines (NICP), in partnership with the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) and the Cyber City Teleservices Philippines Inc. (CCTP) launched in synergy the eGov Awards for LGUs in 2012. In 2017, the project has been supported by the Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) and has reached its 6th year as the first and most prestigious recognition to be given by the ICT sector to LGUs with exemplary performance. The LGU eGov Awards share the vision of establishing indices for local government units across the country in harnessing the potentials of ICT towards raising the bar in delivering public service.
