Habitat
for Humanity Mongolia was set up in 1999 to address the need for decent and
affordable housing. It has four affiliates. One in the capital operates program
centers in Zuunmod, Bagakhangai, Baganuur and Nalaikh. The other affiliates are
in Darkhan, Erdenet and Khangai. The latter also operates program centers in
Arvaikheer and Kharkhorin. In addition, Habitat helps low-income families in
Bulgan and Khentii provinces through a partnership with World Vision Mongolia.
Housing needs in Mongolia Known as the Land of the Blue Sky, Mongolia’s extreme
temperatures mean hardship for the population, many of whose lives still
revolve round herding livestock. There have been very heavy snowfalls in recent
winters. Known locally as dzud, such heavy snows leave rural people even more
vulnerable to poverty. In 2009/2010, a particularly severe dzud affected the
livelihoods and food security of half a million rural inhabitants.
