An equally exciting contest will be held parallel to the 2012 Palarong Pambansa – the search for the cleanest and greenest delegation billeting quarter. The Department of Education has released the criteria in selecting the cleanest, greenest and most eco-friendly billeting quarters of participating regions in keeping with the pro-green policies of the Palaro. The criteria for judging focus on the upkeep of the billeting quarters and the delegation’s serious compliance with environmental promotion. Part of the decision will also
be based on the evaluation of the athletes’ behavior and the officials outside their quarters. The implementation of a Clean and Green Palaro started in the 2011 Palaro held in Dapitan City with the department’s aim to promote environmentally-sound methods for resource conservation and environmental protection. “The department pushes further the campaign for an ecofriendly Palaro following the success of last year’s initiatives,” Education Secretary Br. Armin A. Luistro FSC said. Luistro believes that pursing eco-friendly policies is a lifetime commitment to the environment. “The Palaro is a good avenue to instill among our youth the sense of responsibility not only for themselves but for the society as well,” he stressed. The delegation quarters will be randomly inspected by the judging committee members designated by the National Technical Management and Administration Committee (NTMAC). Evaluation will also be done at the event areas. Winners for Clean est and Greenest Billeting Quarters and runners-up will be awarded during the Awarding Ceremonies on the last day of the Palaro.
In the 2011 Palarong Pambansa which was held in Dapitan City, Zamboanga del Norte, Region IV-A (CALABARZON) was recognized to have the Cleanest and Greenest Billeting Quarter
