INTRODUCTION Mongolia is situated in the northern part of Central Asia and covers an area of 1.5 million km2 and it extends from 40 to 52 northern latitudes. In general, Mongolia is a mountain country. Its mean elevation is 1500 m above sea level. The total population of Mongolia is 2.5 million. The radiation situation in Mongolia is mainly determined by the geographic location and the elevation above sea level. The global radioactive fallout from nuclear and thermonuclear weapon tests depends on the latitude. A study of environmental radiation level in Mongolia during the 1980s was performed with respect to scientiˇc and health aspects. Within the scope of this study, the Nuclear Re- search Center (former Nuclear Research Laboratory) of the National University of Mongolia carried out investigations of the radioactivity in samples of air, soil, different types of coals, building materials and other environmental samples.

Saldarriaga 3 I would like to thank… Delgermaa for her wonderful and consistent work as my translator who never hesitated to share Tsetserleg with me. The various individuals throughout the semester who shared their homes with me and made my experience truly unique and amazing. A special “thank you” goes to Tomorbaatar, Enkhtuya, and Bilguun for sharing their beautiful home and putting up with me for well over a month in UB. Bat-Gerel and Pastor Bayraa, who shared with me the passion and love behind the religions to which they dedicated their lives—a simple “thank you” is just not enough. Dashzeveg and Bulganchimeg, who made my time in Tsetserleg possible through their time and help. It was comforting to know they were always just a phone call away. Professor Munkh-Ochir, who always gave me new ideas or perspectives to consider, whether through his lectures, readings, or advice. Mom Ulzii, Pop Ulzii, Baatar, Saraa, Ariuna, TJ, and Inghe, who provided me with wonderful assistance, preparations, and opportunities. It’s not appropriate to try to summarize in a tiny paragraph the assistance and contributions you all shared over the course of the semester. I am grateful, to say the least.

It heavily affects vegetation and often leads to desertification. It also extends vehicle operating distance and time, resulting high transport cost. 2) Road Condition in Winter Multiple shifting tracks are covered with snow in winter and become slippery due to uneven surface together with compacted snow. Vehicular movement becomes risky and travel speed is forced to decrease considerably. 3) Existing Wooden Bridge Existing wooden bridge is severely deteriorated and danger always exists for heavy vehicles to go across. This is serious cause of disruption for traffic to cross the river. Heavy vehicles go across the river only when the flow is shallow.

    Case study on Education Sector Restructuring and Reforms MFOS/OSF Case: ”Reform, Restructure and Privatization in Education” Contents Case outline Mongolia has nothing to lose by focusing on education Worldwide education reform Where to start Concepts on educational reform and restructuring Creating legal environment conductive to privatization Reform, restructuring and privatization in the educational field Current educational restructuring accomplishments Social duties of educational organizations Conclusions Chronology of education sector privatization and restructuring References Annexes 1 Case study on Education Sector Restructuring and Reforms MFOS/OSF Case: ”Reform, Restructure and Privatization in Education” REFORM, RESTRUCTURE AND PRIVATIZATION IN EDUCATION (Case outline) Prior to 1990, the government spent 25% of the central budget and 64% of the NGP on education. Investment in the education sector was the highest and held special government protection. By 1992, education spending dropped to 33% of NGP due to an economic crisis in the former Soviet Union, Mongolia’s principal economic partner. After the economic crisis, the Government of Mongolia (GOM) could only afford to invest in larger enterprises such as the livestock and crop sectors thus ignoring crucial issues in the social sector. This dramatically shrank social sector investment pushing it into crisis as well. Before 1992, the government spent 2,000 Togrog annually for each secondary school student, and 13,000 Togrog for each student enrolled in a higher education institution. 84.4% of Mongolian citizens had a secondary school education, while only 0.4% had higher education. At that time many countries had started paying exclusive attention to educational institutions, urging reform and restructuring.
