Combat air pollution in Ulaanbaatar City, Mongolia, with UNDP!

In Mongolia's ger districts, harsh winters force families to burn coal for warmth, filling the air with dangerous smog. Over half of Mongolia’s 3.5 million people live in Ulaanbaatar, facing some of the worst air pollution in the world. This pollution, largely caused by coal briquettes and coal-powered plants, poses severe health risks, with many residents suffering from respiratory diseases, including cancer.

But you can help change this.

Join our #SolarSolution campaign and help families in ger areas transition from coal heating to clean, renewable solar power. Every contribution will empower communities to breathe clean, fresh air and build brighter, healthier futures.

Be part of the solution.

Donate today to clear the skies, one solar panel at a time.
