Improving the quality and accessibility of primary health care in rural areas

Health and medical care sector is one of the areas, in which the great difference in accessibility and quality of services provided in rural and urban regions is evident in Mongolia. One of the consequences of different health-care standard is, for example, the yearly increase in cases of the five most frequent diseases responsible for mortality in rural areas. Another example is the fact that almost 41% of women in childbirth deaths were in rural areas in the observed period (2000-2003).

Mongolia is Surfing the “Renovation Wave” through Construction Materials Recovery

Mongolia is the 19th largest country in the world by area, however, its population of just 3.29 million, also makes it the world’s most sparsely populated country. Since the 1990 democratic revolution, 40% of Mongolia’s population migrated to the capital city of Ulaanbaatar, resulting in an increasing demand for new housing and the booming of the construction industry, rapidly expanding until this day. Existing buildings are, however, not resource efficient, with many relying on fossil fuels for heating and cooling and old technologies and wasteful appliances in their operations.

Supporting civil society to promote human rights and democratization in Mongolian prisons

Democratization is a gradual and continuous process, which needs to take into account a country’s socio-economic and cultural context. Each country and society is free to choose and develop its own model, in a locally driven process, but those models must be consistent with universal human rights principles as expressed in relevant international and regional conventions. Thus in order to support civil society in Mongolia to uphold human rights (political, civil, economic, social and cultural) and to promote democratization, CCR implemented the “Supporting civil society to promote human rights and democratization in Mongolian prisons” project.
