Green Development Strategic Action Plan for Ulaanbaatar 2020.

The Green Development Strategic Action Plan for Ulaanbaatar 2020 primarily focuses on addressing environmental challenges within the city, including air pollution, solid waste management, sewage and sullage, water scarcity and pollution, contaminated soil, and vulnerability to climate change.
The document operates within the broader context of national green development policies and the Ulaanbaatar 2020 Master Plan, aiming to formalize the Municipality's commitment to sustainable urban development. Key legal principles include the enforcement of standards to prevent corruption and ensure that urban services are provided to residents and businesses at reasonable tariffs. It outlines several strategic objectives and actions, including promoting energy, efficient technologies, increasing carbon sinks, protecting water sources, improving water supply and wastewater treatment, and enhancing solid waste management through recycling initiatives.
Specific measures include the introduction of water saving technologies, the development of regulations for grey water reuse, and the establishment of a financial model for recycling. The plan emphasizes the importance of public awareness and participation in achieving these goals, particularly through the promotion of the 3R principles (reduce, reuse, recycle).
The implementation of the Action Plan involves comprehensive institutional arrangements based on international best practices, with the Ulaanbaatar Municipality playing a central role in seeking investments and enforcing compliance. The document highlights the need for cooperation with relevant ministries and organizations, as well as the involvement of the private sector and NGOs in various initiatives.
