Thank you all who joined us for the Peace Games in Ulaanbaatar today, hosted by and . We were glad to welcome local participants from NGOs and institutions such as Blue Banner, MONPI, ISS, MINASS and the UN Association of Mongolia.

In this interactive simulation, participants first-hand engaged in negotiations on Northeast Asia transboundary collaboration for biodiversity and ecological resilience. Through role-playing, dialogue, and collaborative problem-solving, the Peace Games create a safe space to experiment with approaches to de-escalation and cooperation, and can be a tool to deepen understanding, strengthen relationships, and build practical skills that support long-term, locally grounded peacebuilding efforts.

Thanks to all and watch this space for more updates to come!
