“
Even though it was very cold inside the
house in the past winters, we did not insulate it due to limited financial and
human resources. As a result of learning [from the Simple Solution Campaign] I
can now insulate my own house with simple and affordable solutions,” said Ankhbayar
B., a resident of the 16
th Khoroo of Sukhbaatar District.
The Simple Solutions Campaign launched in Sukhbaatar and Songinokhairkhan Districts
three months ago with a call to insulate houses using materials readily
available. I didn t know that heat loss would be
significantly reduced just by insulating our doors and windows,”
explained Ankhbayar B.

Ulaanbaatar /MONTSAME/ The construction sector is
dominated by men, not only in Mongolia but also in countries throughout the
world. Even in an advanced economy like the US, women consist of less than 1% of construction
workers on the jobsite.
Here at the EU Funded Switch Off Air Pollution Project (SOAP), we’re
working to redefine the role of women in the construction sector by working
with jobsite team leaders, locally known as brigade leaders, to break outdated
gender norms and help them find the best construction workers, regardless of
sex. But we’re also training women to join the booming construction sector.

Ulaanbaatar /MONTSAME/. On February 2, Prime Minister of Mongolia L.Oyun-Erdene, accompanied with government officials met with representatives from business entities and non-government organizations engaged in the construction industry in the country.
At the outset of the meeting, the newly-appointed Prime Minister highlighted that the government of Mongolia will give all round support to implement its policy to provide its population with housing accommodations. “For instance, a working group will be formed composed of representation from all sides in connection with the development of ‘Youth – 1, 2, and 3’ public housing projects of apartment complexes.”
Citizens who are provided with opportunities to live in housing apartment and access to quality healthcare services and educated are the key to build a ‘wealthy’ middle class, considers the PM.
