New Taipei City urban governance awards

Overview

New Taipei City was named the “2026 Outstanding City” at the CommonWealth Magazine City Governance Excellence Awards. The city received two first prizes and two excellence awards from a pool of 165 projects involving 20 local governments in Taiwan.

Specific recognitions included a first prize for the Fire Department in the Social Progress category for its emergency medical services model, which achieved a high out-of-hospital cardiac arrest recovery rate. The Environmental Protection Bureau also earned a first prize for its AI-driven smart inspection system used to monitor water pollution.

Further excellence awards were granted to the city for vocational education initiatives and animal safety governance. The latter, awarded to the Agriculture Bureau, focused on a five-pillar approach to animal protection, including rabies vaccination rates and specialized animal shelters.
