CRKh members in Bagakhangai district trained

Ulaanbaatar /MONTSAME/ Members of the Citizens’ Representative Khural of the city’s Bagakhangai district were involved in a series of trainings on empowering members of Citizens’ Representative Khural (CRKh) and self-governance bodies of localities held last Friday. Launched from June of 2013, the project on empowering members of Citizens’ Representative Khural (CRKh) aims to improve responsibilities of the local administrations and services, to let work out a national training programme for local self-governance members, and to modify the legal environment of the local self-governance bodies. A survey has been conducted among the trainees on what contents and themes should be reflected in the training programmes, and majority of them suggested that seven topics--the Constitutional and legal fundamentals of local self-governance bodies, civil participation and communicating with civilians, organizing meetings of the CRKh, the local budgetary and financial management, prevention of corruption, environment and green development, human rights and gender--are vital to promote the duties and responsibilities of the CRKh. In 2013, the training involved 2,100 members of the CRKh of Khentii, Omnogobi, Tov, Bayankhongor, Bayan-Olgii provinces, the city's Songinokhairkhan, Sukhbaatar and Bayanzurkh districts. From this year, it has been attended by the members of Bulgan, Dornod, Dundgobi, Gobisumber, Gobi-Altai, Ovorkhangai, Zavkhan, Darkhan-Uul, Khovd, Khovsgol, Orkhon, Selenge aimag, the city's Nalaikh, Baganuur, Khan-Uul, Bayangol and Chingeltei districts.
