At the heart of the Department of the Interior and Local Government (<strong>DILG</strong>)<br />
logo is the acronym of the Department, <strong>DILG</strong>, written in black for easy recognition and<br />
as a strong manifestation of its steadfast commitment to promote peace and order,<br />
ensure public safety and strengthen the capability of local governments.<br />
Said acronym is prominently placed on top of the Map of the Philippines,<br />
representing the country’s national territory and comprising all local government units<br />
which are under the general supervision of the Department.<br />
The People and the Shields Forming the Circle correspond to the seventeen<br />
(17) regions of the country, including the Autonomous Region for Muslim Mindanao<br />
(ARMM). The shield also represents the interior sector or the peace and order and<br />
public safety sectors, while the people stands for the local government sector under<br />
one Department. The two symbols are placed alternately to underscore the need for<br />
both sectors to work together to bring about peaceful and progressive communities.<br />
MANDATE<br />
To promote peace and order, ensure public safety, and further<br />
strengthen local government capability aimed towards the effective<br />
delivery of basic services to the citizenry.<br />
MISSION<br />
