The Philippine Star
|November 27, 2023
The Department of Science and Technology (DOST) has expressed a desire to transform 80 local government units (LGUs) all over the country into smart and sustainable cities.
The DOST on Saturday launched the Transforming LGUs Towards Society 5.0 project during the celebration of the 2023 National Science, Technology and Innovation Week in Iloilo City, the first time it is done outside Metro Manila.
Science Secretary Renato Solidum Jr. disclosed that the DOST is collaborating with the Development Academy of the Philippines, Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) and Department of the Interior and Local Government for the undertaking.
“This program is a people-centric and technology-driven strategy anchored on collaboration, cooperation and complementation of efforts among our partner key players,” Solidum said.
