A Guideline for Sustainable Public Procurement: Adapted for use by Mongolian Public Procurement Officers of all level Budgetary Bodies

With vast agricultural and mineral resources and an increasingly educated population, Mongolia’s long-term development prospects are bright. At the same time, Mongolia continues to face important environmental challenges, such as land degradation, air and water pollution and increasing carbon dioxide emissions. The UN Partnership for Action on Green Economy (PAGE) started its engagement in Mongolia in 2013, supporting the development of the National Green Development Policy (NGDP), which was approved by Parliament in 2014. With the NGDP, Mongolia has a national framework in place that sets clear goals for a green development pathway of the country, centered on the promotion of sustainable consumption and production practices, sustainable ecosystem carrying capacities, increased investment in natural capital, human development, green technology, and green lifestyles and education.
