After a successful campaign in 2018, TAGA-ALOG returns as it aims to further promote Pasig River as a space for cultural identity and collective memory beyond public awareness and capacity building initiatives.
With the new slogan “Sulong! Lusong!” already in effect, Taga-alog 2019 calls everyone to move forward and immerse oneself in being a “taga-alog” or shaker—an ambassador for the rehabilitation of the Pasig River until it becomes clean and alive once again.
Spearheaded by National Commission for Culture and the Arts (NCCA), the Philippine Education Theater Association (PETA), and the Pasig River Rehabilitation Commission (PRRC), TAGA-ALOG 2019, Ilog Pasig: Sulong! Lusong! will employ strategies founded on the gains and learnings from its first year.
A combination of arts-based activities retained from last year and newly developed ones will make up the second year of the campaign, such as the following:
- Workshops and Mentorship Programs (songwriting, story writing, film making, theater arts, dance, and visual arts)
- Competitions (songwriting, story writing, and film making)
- Lakbay Baybay Experiential Tour (Mandaluyong City and Marikina City)
- Site Enhancements through Visual Arts (3 sites)
- Lecture Performance on Tour (10 venues)
- Taga-alog 2019 Culminating Concert.
Since its inception last year, the Taga-alog campaign recognizes the importance of building relationships among partners and key stakeholders who will support the program activities and ensure the continuity and further development of the creative campaign.
At present, several groups from both the government and private sectors have responded to the call for river warriors – or “Taga-alogs” – who will be responsible for the implementation of the project activities, such as the local government units, government agencies, and private companies:
