Public Lab Mongolia

Public Lab Mongolia is a nonprofit organization dedicated to cultivating resilient communities by advancing environmental sustainability-public health nexus through open data and citizen advocacy. We believe accessible, accurate and up-to-date data is essential for promoting transparency, collaboration, and empowerment of people. We work towards creating a culture of open data in Mongolia for informed decision-making on environment and environmental public health issues. A powerful approach to make information accessible is to present data in visually compelling and intuitive ways. With our experience in data visualization, GIS analysis coupled with innovative community engagement and facilitation, we are a strong team of trainers for impact-focused collaboration. We bridge the gaps between different local and international stakeholders such as communities, academia, policy-makers, private sector and youth to promote innovative collaboration that supports positive environmental and public health impacts.
