Unilab Ideas Positive
Unilab Ideas Positive 2011, a health-related community project competition, has now chosen 11 semi-finalists from almost 60 entries. Read more about Unilab Ideas Positive here.
Among the 11 semi-finalists, only 3 will be chosen and will be awarded a total prize of PhP250,000 to jumpstart their projects.
In 2010, it was Team Biggkas of the University of Asia and the Pacific (UA&P) who bagged the grand prize for its farm-in-the-city concept. The winning team taught hydroponics gardening to mothers in Barangay San Joaquin in Pasig City so they have their own sustainable source of vegetables within the community. Mothers made their first harvest of lettuce and kangkong in April this year. The local government of Pasig City has expressed a desire to replicate the same program in other barangays.
This year, 11 teams were selected as semi-finalists out of 56 entries from over 20 schools in NCR, Camanava, and Calabarzon.
Information on the semi-finalists and their programs can be seen at the Unilab Ideas Positive website.
