The monitoring trip evaluated SYL's project in Mongolia from August 9-21, 2011. Representatives conducted interviews with beneficiaries and IEC staff in Tuv and Dornod provinces to assess whether objectives were met and the project made a difference. While trainings benefited many, sustainability is a challenge after SYL support ends. IEC works to find other funding and is a trusted partner, but lacks financial resources without SYL. The next SYL project will operate in Ulaanbaatar and Arkhangai only.
