Environmental Education at the Khan Khentii Special Protected Area
The Khan
Khentii Special Protected Area (KKSPA) administration has started a waste
management campaign and competition among neighboring soums in March 2023. The
main objective is to include all community members in the initiative and work
together to make the environment waste free and clean. The “One bottle One
Icecream” campaign is geared towards youth with the incentive of an icecream
for every glass bottle brought back for recycling. The competition under the
slogan “Clean households Free of Waste” is to encourage community members
separating their household waste and disposing it in allocated places in order
to prevent environmental pollution. This inititive is supported by the initiative
by the Ministry of Environment and Tourism to create a healthy and clean
environment that welcomes tourists.
