To mark the 100th anniversary of the founding of Mongolia’s child and youth organizations, as well as World Children’s Day, the national forum “Child–Care–Future” was held at the State Palace.

The aim of the forum was to hear directly from children about their aspirations, values, and goals, and to bring their proposals to decision-making levels so they may be reflected in future state laws and policies.
