What We Do
Equipping women entrepreneurs for success.
Established in 2016, the Women’s Business Center (WBC) is Mongolia’s first women-focused business service center committed to helping women entrepreneurs to start and grow their businesses through business trainings, financial advice, consulting services, and business incubator and accelerator programs. Since its founding, the WBC has served more than 8,000 entrepreneurs. The WBC also launched psychosocial counseling services and small grant support for women entrepreneurs facing hardships caused by the pandemic.
Catalyzing the youth vote
A decline in voter turnout is a growing concern for democracy in Mongolia.
Using social media campaigns and interactive content in 2020, the Foundation supported a range of youth and women-led organizations to improve voter education and energize youth political participation. Social media campaigns including democracy hackathons, youth policy dialogues, and networking events reached 19,000+ people and accumulated 8 million social media impressions. These efforts helped contribute to a 12 percent increase in voter turnout among 18-25-year-olds, an increase not observed in any other age group.
