Preparing the TransNet Project Launch in Mongolia
Location: Mongolia
Date: October 2025
Project team members recently joined the newly established TransNet consortium to prepare the launch of a research project focusing on the challenges and opportunities that mining presents for herders’ livelihoods.
The preparatory program combined field visits, stakeholder consultations, and intensive working sessions on research methods, task allocation, and project logistics. These activities were complemented by on-site exchanges and informal discussions, including overnight stays near a traditional Ger, providing valuable insights into local contexts and conditions.
Set against the backdrop of Mongolia’s distinctive landscapes, the meetings fostered a strong team spirit and productive collaboration among consortium members. The engagement and momentum generated during this preparatory phase mark an important step toward the successful launch of the TransNet project.
