📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

This workcamp has been organized together with MCE (Mongolian workCamps Exchange) since 2002. Before 1990, the forests were covered with 10 of land, but 7 today, caused by cutting trees without any controls and forest fire. There are increasing activities by some organizations to plant trees but it takes a long time here to grow trees and the current and water level of river has been decreased. So we should also join this movement and summer workcamps of MCE keep watering, so the forests have been grown quite well. As this project originally started with targeting Japanese people who has series of the national holidays in 04/29 and 05/04-06, be ready to have many Japanese joining partly
