GerHub is a mission-driven Urban Lab that designs, tests, and evaluates innovative solutions to Mongolia’s urban challenges in ger and apartment areas.

Our Vision

Our Mission

To be a vibrant and inclusive hub where creativity, collaboration, and innovation converge to address the most pressing urbanization challenges in Mongolia.

To drive evidence-based urban innovation and empower communities across Ulaanbaatar to shape a more inclusive, resilient, and sustainable city.

Where We Work

For over a decade, GerHub has focused on Ulaanbaatar’s ger areas, which comprise traditional gers and self-built detached houses, generally lacking access to central infrastructure such as heating, running water, and plumbing.

Building on this experience, GerHub is evolving into a citywide Urban Lab, co-creating and testing innovative solutions to urban challenges across both ger and apartment areas.
