M•CAM is working with Tsend Enkhtuya to initiate programs with the nomadic yak herders. “In this winter is very cold in Mongolia and a lots of livestock are in disaster because of high snows, colds, also from mining’s environmental problems,” she writes. Given the extensive Heritable Knowledge in ecological resource management, dairy production, and organic resource utilization, the nomadic communities are ideally aligned for inclusion in the Heritable Innovation Trust framework.

Current Efforts: 

In 2010, the Heritable Innovation Trust (HIT) expanded to Mongolia. Three communities, including the South Gobi Desert, the Arkhangai aimag, and the capital city of Ulaanbaatar were introduced to the Trust upon invitation from Tsend Enkhtuya and the Mongolia National Business Incubator Federation (MNBIF). The communities above have all opted to become participants in a network into which they have entrusted their values and experience. By trusting counterparties, market visibility and creativity are being brought to bear on the values disclosed herein.

78-year-old Grandma Chagan spent her days dreaming of the homeland she was forced to abandon over 53 years ago due to the construction of the country's spaceflight base. Chagan said she remembers the day the helicopters landed near her yurt and her family were forced to pack everything they owned and leave the only land they knew to be home. Chagan lived in the Baori Ulan village, which housed over 200 families as well as 70,000 sheep as well as 1,400 herdsmen of the Tuerhute Tribe of Mongolia. With no where to go, they wandered the desert for eight years.
