Philippine Information Agency

The Philippine Information Agency's aim is to disseminate information about government programs, projects, and services to the Filipino public, with the final goal of improving their quality, thus empowering them to participate in the country’s democratic processes.

As the only government information network that can reach the grassroots—spanning 16 regional offices and 78 provincial information centers—the PIA is the country’s chief information arm. Its expertise is development communication. PIA also serves as a public relations firm for specific communication campaigns as requested by agencies under the Office of the President, national government agencies, local government units, government owned and controlled corporations (GOCCs), government financial institutions (GFIs), special inter-agency committees/councils and government task forces, among others.

Vision: An enlightened citizenry empowered to make informed decisions toward improved quality of life and to contribute to nation-building. Mission: The Philippine Information Agency is committed to provide a national mechanism for the free flow of timely, accurate and relevant information to: 1) Enhance people’s capabilities in decision-making and identification of opportunities for growth and development; and 2) Promote people’s participation in democratic process.
