"In the end, we will conserve only what we love; we will love only what we understand, and we will understand only what we are taught."

- Baba Dioum - 

We strongly believe in this quote and as a result, our organization started in 2008 different environmental education activities in our study areas: 

• presentations about the Mongolian Khulan at the school of Khatanbulag (Dornogobi province). 

• environmental education and awareness participative activities involving herders, protection agencies' staff, Buddhists monks and border protection officers. 

• Our Conservation director also created in 2016 a game about competition to access to water resources in the Gobi which has been designed for adults and also children. 

• the publication in 2016 of a bilingual English-Mongolian Children book "The lost Khulan in the Gobi". 700 copies were printed in 2016, from which half have been donated to children in our study area as well as to a few conservation organizations working in the Gobi Desert, and the other half has been sold in Mongolia and abroad and the benefits from the sales will support further educational activities in our project's study area. 

Our organization is now developing a curriculum for the local community's members to bridge local environmental knowledge to scientific knowledge about Ecology, Gobi wildlife and the Gobi ecosystem, and sustainable use of natural resources.

The following topics will be added to these curriculums: biodiversity conservation, scientific methodology, community-based conservation and conservation tourism. 

We are also using the "training the future trainers" approach to have a more broad and sustainable impact in our project area, besides developing other activities in environmental education.
