Conclusions and recommendations

It is notable that policy discussions and documents regularly refer to the concept of human development and that a Human Development Fund was created to manage the resources expected from greatly expanded mining operations. The MDGs are intended to constitute the framework for the National Development Strategy 2008-2021. With support from UNDP, the Government has been working to extend MDG monitoring to the most decentralized administrative units. The State Great Khural has adopted the MDGs as the law of the land, including a ninth goal on democratic governance. The creation of the NDIC (in 2009) was the logical conclusion of a long process of developing an institution with responsibility for coordinating, supervising and monitoring implementation of the strategy to achieve these goals and achieve middle-income status within the next decade.

Sustainable Development Goals:

Decent Work and Economic Growth

Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure
