Promoting Dryland Sustainable Landscapes and Biodiversity Conservation in the Eastern Steppe of Mongolia (SES – Sustainable Eastern Steppe)

The 'Promoting Dryland Sustainable Landscapes and Biodiversity Conservation in the Eastern Steppe of Mongolia' project (2020-2025) is a GEF-funded initiative to restore 6.86 million hectares of dryland. It focuses on biodiversity conservation, soil fertility restoration, and GHG emission reduction through four components: enabling environment strengthening, scaling up sustainable management, enhancing landscape connectivity, and project coordination.

• The project aims to transform the Eastern Steppe of Mongolia into a resilient landscape by restoring soil fertility, enhancing biodiversity conservation and sustainable utilization, and reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
• The project covers 6.86 million hectares of dryland across nine soums in the Dornod, Khentii, and Sukhbaatar provinces, consisting of 5.96 million hectares in the Mongolia-Manchurian Grassland Ecoregion and 897,748 hectares in the Daurian Forest Steppe Ecoregion.
• The initiative is funded by the Global Environment Facility (GEF) with USD 6 million in GEF funding and USD 42 million in co-financing, spanning a five-year duration from 2020 to 2025.
