Dr. Bernadette Andaya, Kalinga CHD Team Head said published write-ups, broadcasted news, and photos will be judged according to fairness and balance, timeliness, insight, impact, and quality. They should help advocate health programs and projects in the region, and contribute improvements on the health conditions of the people. To qualify for this award, Andaya said an entry for local print reporting must have been developed and published in a newspaper, magazine or other print outlet circulating in the Cordillera Administrative Region. The same holds true for photo. For broadcast reporting, it covers radio and television pieces developed for local broadcast and aired.
