Impact of Air Pollution on Maternal and Child Health Project

SDC has contributed significantly to improving primary healthcare services for children and pregnant women to cope better with indoor air pollution and, consequently, reduced incidences of pneumonia amongst children and air pollution-related pregnancy risks. With long winter months, keeping houses warm and heated is of utmost importance. Successfully tested solutions using electricity instead of coal for the most vulnerable families in Ulaanbaatar and provincial centre of Bayankhongor Province are being introduced to the local market. Among these solutions, the Cooking, Heating and Insulation Products (CHIP) enables the replacement of traditional coal-based stoves in gers. A crucial factor for deciding to replace stoves is the affordability of solutions, which is addressed through green loans provided by the Government of Mongolia, banks and non-banking financial institutions.
