Which local governments were recognized — and when.
6,812 recognitions of provinces, cities, municipalities and barangays from the DILG Seal of Good Local Governance (for LGUs and for barangays) and the Galing Pook Awards, each linked to its official source.
Seal of Good Local Governance
DILG's yearly seal for provinces, cities and municipalities that pass its governance assessment (financial administration, disaster preparedness, social protection, peace and order, business friendliness, environmental management and more).
No SGLG list is shown for 2022 (350 LGUs) and 2024 (714 LGUs): DILG announced those awardees, but the official national lists were not found on any reachable official page, so they are not reconstructed from news reports.
Seal of Good Local Governance for Barangay
DILG's seal for barangays that pass its assessment of financial administration, disaster preparedness, peace and order, social protection, business-friendliness, environmental management and barangay governance. Only national passers are listed.
DILG published national passer lists for 2023 (1,028 barangays) and 2024 (3,283 barangays). A few barangays whose names are not in the PSGC list used by the map are listed but not linked.
Galing Pook Awards
Awards for innovative and effective local government programs, given since 1994. Each award names a specific program of the LGU.
Only awardees listed on galingpook.org are included.
