In July 2017 IOM Mongolia launched a pilot phase of the eighteen-month project “Understanding and Managing Internal Migration in Mongolia”. This pilot phase aimed to strengthen internal migration management through enhanced data collection and capacity building of government agencies and key stakeholders. Two reports were produced under this project: the “Mongolia: Internal Migration Study” and “The Urban Migrant Vulnerability Assessment,” as well as a policy brief on internal migration. These studies and the policy brief provided a baseline and recommendations for further initiatives to improve management of internal migration in Mongolia.  
 
In this follow up phase of “Understanding and Managing Internal Migration in Mongolia,” IOM will work with relevant government ministries, Committees and Sub-Councils to mainstream migration into national, local and sectoral policies and development plans to improve management of rural to urban migratory flows through supporting national and local authorities in planning and carrying out interventions to reduce internal migrant vulnerability
