SUSTAINABILITY

With an aim of introducing the innovation and strengthening institutional capacity building for
leather, textile, meat and dairy value chains in Mongolia, the project has been diversifying the
potential partners and beneficiaries as per supporting institutionalization progress through
sub-projects. In reporting period of 2020, 4 sub-projects including upscaling shearing practices
by AUO and flaying methods by AUO and MALI were implemented by the project partners.
Following matrix indicates the key local institutions, who have been coached at the same time
partnered in execution of the project interventions from the beginning. These public-private
partnership-based value chains platforms would play key role in scaling up the project results
and ensuring the sustainability. See Table 10.
During the project, 6 eLearning courses of UNIDO were localised and 6 new courses were
developed by international and national experts. New courses could be adopted to the UNIDO
member countries. To ensure the sustainability of e-courses for long run, the UNIDO signed
agreements with 8 institutions initially, and 6 more will be signed. There are 1-2 main
recipients, plus several additional training partners for each course. eLearning courses along
with ToT and consulting in implementation, provide business and income opportunities,
innovation in education for partners. Based on the capacity, needs and readiness of training
institutions, eLearning platform on Moodle was built for 3 institutions (UEFDI, RDILI,
ARMONO), and license of authoring tool Articulate Storyline3 was provided to 2 institutions
(MRCS, RDILI). See Table 11.
The SECIM goal is to increase jobs, competitiveness and productivity on a sustained basis.

The 2+ years of activities have resulted in key technology and knowledge transfer that underlie
new government initiatives for food and non-food products that will be sustained under national
expertise and funding.

There are areas which need continuous development such as rural processing centres.
Linkages to UNIDO global expertise established with MOFALI (Light Industry Department,
Food Industry Department, Armono, GAVS etc).

Sustainable interventions based on local manufacturing, local expertise and continuous
learning opportunities from national instititutions.
