Matter of sustainable development education is an inevitable task for Mongolia because of rapid process of environmental degradation, social change and economic growth. The Environment Ministry is aspiring to provide basic understanding about sustainable development and green growth, while trying to change people’s behavior and develop their sustainable skills, starting from the public officials.
“We picked public officials working in the 10 partnering government bodies as our trainees, because they are the ones who must be role models for ordinary citizens on how to work and grow sustainably and make people understand about the coordination between green growth and education for sustainable development. The trainees have been receiving information on ways to apply environmental management system into their workplaces and how to encourage others to adopt sustainable lifestyle", says Ts.Uranchimeg, director of Clean Technology, Investment and Production Division.
