It is our firm belief that travel industry can contribute to the development of our beautiful country without damaging what truly makes us US! As we appreciate the delicate nature of country's undisturbed beauties and nomadic culture, we take it upon ourselves to safeguard the vulnerable aspects of travel. We truly believe in the power of travel as force for good. This can only be done by with the help of local communities. We as a company, depend Mongolia's local community, not the other way around. Therefore, in order for us to reap the benefits of travel industry, the local community must be able to benefit from our collaboration as much as possible. We regard United Nations Development Programme's 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) as our polar star when it comes to orchestrating our sustainability policy. Juulchin World Tours aims to contribute directly or indirectly to these SDS's as much as possible through our operation.
4. Quality of education
As a leading travel company, Juulchin World Tours take it upon itself to address industry-wide human resource shortage by establishing hospitality school to train skilled tourism and hospitality professionals. The school has been operating as a “Tourism Skills Center” since 2012. In 2015, it established the first Vocational Training and Production Center (VTPC) in Mongolia to train tourism and hospitality professionals to meet the modern needs of the hospitality industry. We are expanding our activities in order to provide citizens with professional education aimed at training internationally qualified staff with relevant knowledge and skills and improving the quality of services. The specialization of our school is based on our own internship base. We combine professional training such as Hotel and Camp Service Officer, Hotel Room Waiter, Waiter-Bartender, Chef and Tour Guide with classroom training and production.
5. Gender Equality
The tourism sector has been a female-dominated environment for many years, with Travel Management Companies leading the way. For example, Juulchin World Tours over 80% of our workforce is comprised of females. We truly believe that tourism and women play an essential role in achieving the commitments of the United Nation’s 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development – including commitments to gender equality and women’s empowerment.

11. Sustainable cities & communities
Juulchin World Tours strives to increase cultural and environmental awareness. From the very beginning, we have placed the utmost importance on cultural and the environmental preservation through our leadership and environmental stewardship. We believe that responsible travel is the best way to promote and respect the local environment and culture. All of our tours are specially designed to give travelers immersive experience with local nomads. Our ancestors taught us to have a deep respect for the environment because they believed every object in nature is precious. With that same respect, we conduct our business with environmentally sensitivity; especially in our national parks and wildlife reserves
As a pioneer in travel industry, we strive to play leadership role in restoring some of the cultures that are being forgotten with passage of time. Juulchin World Tours have organized Ganga Nuur Orchestra event in Sukhbaatar Province, Eastern Mongolia three years in a row. The aim of the event is to celebrate the unique cultural features of Eastern Mongolia and showcase the some of the forgotten rituals of the land in an effort to boost and develop inclusive and sustainable lifestyle to the residents of eastern Mongolia. Ultimately, it was aimed at revising and protecting the Eastern regions tangible and intangible cultural & historical heritage by bringing the public together and discuss on ways to elongate the some of the forgotten cultures & rituals. The outcomes of this event were reflected in the eastern Mongolia’s regional development planning.
Juulchin World Tours supports scientific excursions in the Gobi region to help further the field of Mongolian paleontology. We work closely with the scientific community to promote and showcase their work with our guests and like-minded individuals. In June 2018, Juulchin World Tours & The Explorers Club Hong Chapter together with their colleagues at Mongolia's Institute of Paleontology and Geology led a multidisciplinary team of scientists and adventurers over 1200 miles across the forbidding Gobi Desert to revisit and expand upon the original Roy Chapman Andrews expeditions of the 1920’s that produced the world’s first fossilized dinosaur eggs. The Hong Kong Chapter’s “collaboration over conquest” approach to exploration, and their groundbreaking use of NASA imaging and mapping technology to advance the field of paleontology, yielded historic results that would have been unimaginable in Andrews' day. Also in 2019, we proudly co-sponsored The fourth International Symposium on Asian Dinosaurs in Mongolia. At the symposium, around 80 researchers from 12 countries presented their recent findings about not only dinosaur paleontology, but also about plants and reptiles dating back to millions of years ago.
Juulchin World tours has established ‘Mazaalai Foundation’ with the aim to supporting the conservation efforts of the biologist to protect a few remaining critically endangered bear in the Gobi. The Gobi bear (Ursus arctos gobiensis), known in Mongolian as the Mazaalai (Мазаалай), is a subspecies of the brown bear (Ursus arctos) that is found in the Gobi Desert of Mongolia. It is listed as critically endangered by the Mongolian Redbook of Endangered Species and by IUCN standards.
Juulchin World tours supports local “Shineleg” Child Care Centre, located in the outskirt of Ulaanbaatar. This impoverished neighborhood is predominantly home to migrants from countryside and families with extreme poor living conditions. The Centre aims accommodates children from poor, very poor and single parent families or orphan children 5 days a week. A family with many children is also referred here. The center provides warm environment where children can feel at home, play around, eat and study. Outside of elementary education provided by public schools, the children learn from their mum-teachers how to conduct basic and practical things in life. In collaboration of mom-teacher, they learn to prepare meals, to wash their own clothes on their own and live like a one family. By doing these basic things on their own, kids become more independent and creative. We help the center to insulate their facilities to protect the kids from cold during winter period and regularly provide necessary supplies to keep center going. In addition, we encourage our guests to contribute to this great cause whenever it is appropriate.
