Representatives from the Incident Management Teams shared their observations and recommendations to further strengthen the municipality’s disaster preparedness, emergency response mechanisms, and inter-agency coordination for future large-scale events. Their insights highlighted the importance of collaboration in ensuring the safety and well-being of athletes, officials, delegates, and spectators throughout the event.

As a gesture of gratitude and recognition for their dedication and invaluable service, tokens of appreciation were awarded to the Incident Management Teams from four municipalities that provided augmentation support during the conduct of Palaro Tu Agsur 2026. The presentation of tokens underscored the Municipality of Prosperidad’s appreciation for the unwavering commitment and professionalism demonstrated by the IMT personnel throughout the activation period.

The successful completion of the EOC and IMT operations reflects the strong partnership among local government units and emergency management stakeholders in ensuring a safe, orderly, and successful hosting of one of the country’s premier sporting events.
