The Quezon City government has received 25 biodigesters and food waste-on-wheels from the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) in the Philippines and the Japanese government to boost the city's transition to a circular economy and further strengthen its food waste recovery strategy in communities.

Mayor Joy Belmonte expressed her gratitude as the city received the equipment from First Secretary and Agriculture Attaché of the Embassy of Japan in the Philippines Jumpei Tachikawa and UNDP Resident Representative in the Philippines Selva Ramachandran. She also thanked UNDP and the Department of Environment and Natural Resources for making Quezon City part of this initiative.
