Decentralization, Local Governance and Local Economic Development in Mongolia

21 July 2021

via Zoom.

 

Decentralization, Local Governance and Local Economic Development in Mongolia offers an empirical assessment of both the formal features of Mongolia’s system of decentralized governance, and the extent to which these formal features translate into the actual, practical working environment for subnational governments (SNGs). More specifically, the study focuses on two of the roles that are typically assigned to SNGs, namely the provision of public services and the promotion of local economic development. The paper was prepared as a collaborative effort between EAPF, SDTC-GOV and The Asia Foundation (Mongolia Chapter).
