1. Global Nomadic Products serves Nomadic families in Mongolia, w/Khaliunaa Enkhbold

Global Nomadic Products (GNP) is a startup that partners with Mongolian Nomadic families to market nutritious yak dairy products in Mongolia and abroad. In this episode, I interviewed Khaliunaa Enkhbold, General Manager of GNP and alumna of the Hubert H. Humphrey Fellowship Program at Cornell University. Khaliunaa spoke about Mongolian nomadic culture, the challenges Nomadic families face in the present day, the story of Global Nomadic Products, Khaliunaa’s own experience as an entrepreneur, and her advice for younger people who want to work to benefit their communities. Join us for a fascinating discussion on all this and more! Khaliunaa is actively fundraising to support GNP’s newest initiatives and would appreciate your support!
