Your support will allow us to accelerate our impact in tackling air pollution and climate change in Mongolia to protect public health and champion environmental justice.

Giving Tuesday is a day that offers everyone an opportunity to contribute to the betterment of their community and the world. We are excited to launch our fundraising campaigns for two major activities planned for the end of 2024 and throughout 2025.

1. Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Prevention Program

With the arrival of the winter season, we see an increasing concern among the public regarding the rise in carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning cases. In 2023, the number of people affected by carbon monoxide poisoning was twice as high as in 2022, with 3,184 reported cases (Mongolian National Center for Public Health). In response, we have prepared guidelines to prevent CO poisoning and are distributing them to households in the ger residential areas of Ulaanbaatar.

Activities Planned:

Place printed guidelines in community centers, schools, and public places such as public wells in Ulaanbaatar's ger residential areas.
Distribute digital versions of the guidelines through social media and Facebook groups, directly reaching residential districts.

Conduct training sessions on preventing CO poisoning for teachers, parents, students and in community centers.

Campaign Budget: $3,000

This includes costs associated with educational materials, distribution of materials throughout the city and conducting in-person workshops.

2. Climate and Clean Air Youth Fellowship 2025

This summer, we launched the Climate and Clean Air Youth Program, which focused on air pollution, climate change, and health issues, training young people to view these challenges holistically and systemically.

Program Activities:

Academic Lessons and Workshops: Educate Fellows on the interrelations of air pollution and climate change, define their root causes, and potential solutions.
Field Visits: Expose fellows to important sites so they can see, hear, and feel the problems and solutions to air pollution and climate change.
Project Development: Fellows will develop creative and innovative project proposals aimed at solving these issues.

Program Budget: $2,500
This includes fees for guest teachers, transportation for field trips, and support for innovative, actionable project ideas.
