This document is a summary report on the implementation of rights for persons with disabilities in Mongolia. It begins with an introduction that provides context, noting key developments that improved rights and attitudes toward persons with disabilities, including amendments to labor laws in 1997, declaring 2001 the Year of Support for Persons with Disabilities, replacing the term "invalidity" with "development disability" in 2004, and Mongolia ratifying the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities in 2008. The report then reflects the results of a survey conducted in 2009 by the National Association of Mongolian Organizations of Persons with Disabilities to develop national indicators to evaluate the rights of persons with disabilities.

Christianity has grown in Mongolia since the end of socialism in 1990. During socialism from 1924-1989, religion was severely repressed and thousands of monks were killed. After 1990, freedom of religion was protected and Christianity grew alongside the revival of Buddhism and traditional shamanism. By 2010 there were over 200 registered Christian organizations, mostly Protestant, with over 40,000 Christians or 2.1% of the population. Christianity continues to develop through missionary activities, social services, and increasing local capacity and leadership.
