When a capital city is only breathing the equivalent of two days of clean air a year, who is responsible and how can we fix it? With pollution levels in Mongolia’s capital of Ulaanbaatar hitting as high as 144 times the WHO guidelines, organisations like Breathe Mongolia Clean Air Coalition are working to help spread knowledge and awareness both inside and outside of the country. “There are no resources in Mongolia about air pollution, so let's create a hub in both English and Mongolian that’s accessible” says co-founder and climate negotiator Enkhuun Byambadorj. From gathering over 70,000 signatures to bring about public hearings, to pushing for evidence based research to counter the anecdotal, Enkhuun shares how her organisation is shifting the narrative and challenging the government's failings to provide the people’s right to clean air.
