AGRITOPIA: A PROPOSED AGRICULTURE BUSINESS CENTRAL

THROUGH VERTICAL FARMING IN TARLAC CITY
Problem Statement:
Agriculture is one of the many problems that the Philippines is still dealing with at the moment.
Changes in climate and weather are destroying the soil, which is one of the main reasons why so
many farmers are having trouble with the land they farm. This, in turn, reduces the amount of
crops and food that can be grown. Because they can't sell their crops in the markets, some of the
harvest ends up going to waste. Some farmers, who were already living in extreme poverty,
decided to sell their farmland to local business owners because they didn't make enough money
from farming alone.
Project Objectives:
- To establish an Agriculture Business Central in Tarlac City that would not only help to
the production of crops but also prevent the harvests from going to waste. (UN SDG#1,
15, 2 and 8)
- To promote and instruct vertical farming in an urban setting by giving local farmers with
highly urbanized farming methods. (UN SDG# 15, 13 and 9)
- To build a sustainable community that meets their needs while preserving the
environment. (UN SDG# 11 and 13)

A PROPOSED PHARMACEUTICAL DEVELOPMENT CENTER AND
VIROLOGY SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGICAL INSTITUTE IN
CLARK PAMPANGA
Problem Statement:
During the epidemic, one of the most important things for our country to worry about
is the rising cost of health care and drug production and distribution. Poor quality
pharmaceuticals and fake drugs have a big effect on our country. We don't have
enough resources and facilities, so it's hard to handle new viruses that show up during
a pandemic in a way that is good for both clinical and public health.
Project Objectives:
- To create a pharmaceutical complex with a high standard for pharmaceutical product
manufacture, quality assurance, and the preparation of compound prescription medications.
(UN SDG# 3 and 8)
- To acknowledge that scientific study and technological innovation are important to the
growth and improvement of the nation. (UN SDG# 9 and 11)
- To have an institute will be a research center for the study of viruses, how the government
can respond to them and how they can be used for different purposes.(UN SDG# 4)

HAELAN: A PROPOSED NEUROLOGICAL HOSPITAL AND
REHABILITATION CENTER THROUGH BIOPHILIC ARCHITECTURE IN
CLARK PAMPANGA
Problem Statement:
There is no doubt that our country needs more neurological facilities and hospitals that are ready to
help people with neurological health problems. It is very hard and complicated to find a solution to
this problem because there aren't enough hospitals with specialized care. Most patients are taken
care of by general practitioners who don't know much about neurological conditions. Some people
tend to ignore what they are feeling, and even a small headache can become a major neurological
problem if it isn't taken care of properly.
Project Objectives:
- To provide a complete neurological medical center where patients can get help for
any kind of neurological condition.(UN SDG#3 and 8)
- To provide an easy access to neurological health treatments and equal services for
people with low incomes.(UN SDG#3 and 10)
- To improve health outcomes of neuro patients by integrating Biophilic
Architecture in healthcare design. (UN SDG# 11, 13 and 15)
