There is a series of arguments that decentralization of governments enhances growth by improving allocation efficiency. However, the empirical studies have shown mixed results for industrialized and developing countries and some of them have demonstrated that there might be a threshold level of economic development below which decentralization is not effective. Developing and transition countries have developed a variety of forms of fiscal decentralization as a possible strategy to achieve effective and efficient governmental structures. A generalized principle of decentralization due to the country specific circumstances does not exist. Therefore, decentra- lization has taken place in different forms in various countries at different times, and even exactly the same extent of decentralization may have had different impacts under different conditions.

    DISSERTATION KNOWLEDGE INTEGRATION IN TRANSDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH: A CASE STUDY OF THE SOCIO-ECOLOGICAL COMPLEXITY PROJECT Submitted by Arren Mendezona Allegretti Graduate Degree Program in Ecology In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, Colorado Fall 2015 Doctoral Committee Members: Advisor: Melinda Laituri Co-Advisor: Kathleen Pickering Jessica Thompson Maria Fernandez-Gimenez Copyright by Arren Mendezona Allegretti 2015 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT KNOWLEDGE INTEGRATION IN TRANSDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH: A CASE STUDY OF THE SOCIO-ECOLOGICAL COMPLEXITY PROJECT Knowledge integration has been crucial for gaining a holistic picture of the inner workings of socio-ecological systems. Integrating local and scientific knowledge sustains biological and global cultural diversity, and may fill gaps in understanding that cannot be elucidated by individual scientific disciplines. Interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary research teams face the challenge of collaborating and integrating their varying disciplinary paradigms and epistemologies along with stakeholders’ local knowledge for understanding and adapting to global and local environmental issues. Communication and knowledge integration across funders, researchers, and research end-users in transdisciplinary research are critical for meeting diverse stakeholder needs and genuinely engaging multiple knowledge systems. These knowledge systems may include a combination of researcher and local ecological knowledge embedded in institutions, disciplines, and cultures. The purpose of this dissertation is to investigate and apply knowledge integration tools for examining socio-ecological systems and transdisciplinary research communication. Specifically, I examine the Socio-ecological Complexity (SEC) project as a case study. The SEC is a pseudonym for an actual project examining the role of Community-Based Rangeland Management (CBRM) institutions in influencing the resilience of Mongolian socio-ecological rangeland systems to climate change.

  • Annual Report 2019 the BANK of MONGOLIA
    THE BANK OF MONGOLIA CENTRAL BANK OF MONGOLIA ANNUAL REPORT 2019 THE BANK OF MONGOLIA ANNUAL REPORT 2019 FOREWORD BY THE GOVERNOR OF THE BANK OF MONGOLIA On behalf of the Bank of Mongolia, I extend my sincere greetings to all of you and am pleased to present the Bank of Mongolia’s annual report. The year 2019 was a year of successful resolving challenges, and sustained recovery of Mongolian economy. The Bank of Mongolia's policies and activities aimed at ensuring sustainable economic growth, financial stability, accelerating the development of the financial markets and promoting institutional developments. Along with contributing to the economic growth, the monetary policy decisions also aimed at maintaining the medium term stability of the national currency. The inflation, measured by consumer price index, contained at 5.2 percent nationwide, 5 percent in Ulaanbaatar city which is in line with medium term targets, and real GDP growth reached 5.1 percent. International reserves reached to 4.3 billion US dollars which is covering 9 months of imports. Favorable external sector conditions, and prudent policies to stabilize macro economy contributed to building up international reserves. Rise in international reserves boosted confidence in domestic currency, positively affected credit ratings and enhanced economic immunity. In order to implement strategy to lower interest rates the following policies and measures were undertaken such as to contain inflation at target level, to buildup international reserves, to reduce dollarization, to enhance credit registry activities and to create a legal framework for consumer protection in financial services market. As a result of maintaining economic and financial stability and positive developments, the weighted average lending rate issued by banks dropped to 16.8%, which is the lowest level for the last eight years.
