Project Completed

Under Implementation

In Mongolia average temperatures have risen by 2.1°C over the past 70 years. Average rainfall is declining, and extreme weather events are more frequent. This poses challenges to livestock production and managing the country’s vast pasturelands, which are already fragile due to decades of unsustainable herding practices.

This project addresses Mongolia’s rangeland degradation and overgrazing. It will do this by building climate-resilient and low-carbon cities that provide adequate services to attract private sector investments to support local agribusiness. Other measures include supporting herder groups to manage the rangelands sustainably by limiting the number of grazing animals, and strengthening agribusiness value chains.
