Mongolia
The project aims to strengthen the capacity of the Government of Mongolia (GoM) on the migration and climate change nexus to better respond to the adverse impacts of climate change and disasters on human mobility in Mongolia. Mongolia’s unique geographical location and the dependence of its rural population on nomadic livestock herding make it particularly vulnerable to climate change risks.
To reach the project objectives, under Outcome 1, IOM will increase the capacity of the Government through the generation of improved, gender-sensitive evidence and data on climate change-induced migration (Output 1.1) and by training officials from the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) on responding to specific challenges related to migration during disaster risk response (Output 1.2). Under Outcome 2, IOM will enhance the information and knowledge of climate change-induced disasters among women and children through communication campaigns and innovative risk knowledge digital content (in cooperation with private sectors) (Output 2.1), and enhance the capacities of NEMA to deliver targeted emergency, livelihood, and psychosocial support to vulnerable migrants, especially women (Output 2.2).
