Former Secretary-General of the United Nations Ban Ki-moon visits Mongolia on June 12 to take part in the Trans-Altai Sustainability Dialogue.

The Dialogue is co-hosted by the Mongolian Parliament, Stanford University’s Walter H. Shorenstein Asia-Pacific Research Center, the Ban Ki-moon Foundation For a Better Future, and Ewha Womans University. It will take place in Ulaanbaatar on June 13-14.

The event is aimed at stimulating cooperative action toward achieving the United Nations-adopted 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and expediting the implementation of gender equality and women’s empowerment.

Ban Ki-moon first visited Mongolia in 2006 when he was the Foreign Minister of the Republic of Korea. He has since visited Mongolia in 2009 and 2019 while serving as UN Secretary General.
