HUSUG BRAND
“Youth Innovators and Designers Association” is a non-governmental organization established in 2015 in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia. The founder, Ms. Namuun, is passionate about social innovation and contributing to community well-being. Within this framework, the Husug team has always given special attention to women facing difficulty accessing work. We are starting to produce 90-100% wool felt home accessories crafted by artisans from rural Mongolia.
OUR ACTIVITY
Over the years, we have implemented numerous projects, organizing workshops, training and technical advice, and counselling for cooperatives and women in Mongolia. Within this framework, we have consistently prioritized women who face challenges in finding full-time employment. The organization has conducted approximately 50 training and technical assistance programs throughout Mongolia, and over nine years, the producer groups have received work orders totaling about $175 thousand through skills-building training.
Our mission through this project is social innovation. We aim to provide training and technical assistance to improve participation in Mongolia's green product development and labeling.
The core of our innovation lies in fostering a society where everyone supports one another, reducing the burdens and challenges they face together.
The organization serves as an innovation provider, enhancing product design, quality, and technology to participate in eco-product development and expand exports.
By providing technical assistance, training, and facilitating the workplace, our goal is to ensure that vulnerable segments of Mongolian society are fully incorporated into national agricultural product development and increase their participation in agricultural and animal raw material processing.
