The organization has developed a range of educational materials and publications for social workers, teachers, students, police and other officials.[citation needed] Recently, the MGEC has been developing educational tools for parents and teachers on child safety to help prevent sexual abuse of children.[citation needed]
MGEC has developed and published a handbook on gender equality (in partnership with the National Pedagogical University and the Science and Technology University of Mongolia). In addition, the organization runs educational programs from primary school to university, and is also currently a member of a lobby group that drafts laws on gender equality.[citation needed]
Victim protectionedit
In 2007 MGEC initiated the "Direct Assistance to Victims of Human Trafficking Program" with assistance from the International Organization for Migration. Since then the program has provided 679 VOTs with assistance from the MGEC including repatriation, rehabilitation and reintegration into the Mongolian community.[2] Between 2016 and 2017, 63 victims of trafficking were identified and provided with complete reintegration assistance.[citation needed]
Foreign marriageedit
Between 2000 and 2008 the number of marriages of Mongolian women to foreign nationals increased from 79 to 3,485, and 67.8% of these were to Korean nationals. In July 2008, MGEC, together with the Government of the Republic of Korea and the Mongolian Ministry of Social Welfare & Labour, provided a one-day training program for Mongolian brides. The program focused on Korean culture, language and society, the legal regulations regarding marriage and divorce in Korea, and gave extensive advice on trafficking, domestic violence and abuse.[3]
