In line with its commitment to transparency, accountability, and citizen participation in governance, the Quezon City Government launched its Open Data Dashboards.

Accessible through the QC eServices portal (www.qceservices.quezoncity.gov.ph), the dashboards allow QCitizens to log in and scrutinize real-time data on key city programs and services, providing a clearer view of how government initiatives are implemented and delivered.

Mayor Joy Belmonte emphasized that this initiative reflects the city’s commitment to good and open governance.

“Transparency is at the heart of good governance. Through our Open Data Dashboards, we are giving QCitizens access to information that empowers them to hold the government accountable and to take part in shaping programs and policies that affect their lives. This is our commitment to building a more open, participatory, and responsive Quezon City,” Mayor Belmonte said.

Developed by the Quezon City Information Technology Development Department (ITDD), in partnership with various city government departments, the platform consolidates data sets to ensure accessible, reliable and timely information.

For its initial launch, the dashboard features data from:

QC Helpline 122 of the Quezon City Citizen Services Department (QCCSD);
Free Maintenance Medicine Program of the QC Health Department (QCHD);
Persons with Disability Community of the Persons with Disability Affairs Office (PDAO);
Pangkabuhayang QC Program of the Small Business and Cooperatives Development and Promotions Office (SBCDPO);
Scholarship Program of the QC Youth Development Office (QCYDO);
QCID Data

The dashboards will feature datasets from 2019 onward, subject to the implementation timelines of specific programs and services.

“Through our Open Data Dashboards, every QCitizen can see how public funds are being used and how programs are being delivered. This also demonstrates how the city government ensures that every peso of public money is put to work—translating into services that are truly felt on the ground. This is transparency in action,” Mayor Belmonte added.

The initiative forms part of the Quezon City Government’s commitment as a member of the Open Government Partnership (OGP) Local Program, a global movement that promotes transparency, inclusivity, public participation, and accountability.

By making government data more accessible, the Open Data Dashboards aim to strengthen public trust and enable QCitizens to better understand, monitor and engage with the City’s programs and services.

It also supports data-driven decision-making within the local government, ensuring that policies and interventions are anchored to real situations and responsive to the needs of the public.

The city government will continue to publish other important data sets for the public in the following weeks.
