It can be assumed that the current failure of governance, in terms of environmental sustainability in many countries, particularly in Mongolia, is associated with lack of an adequate and workable interface between policy and decision making camps and knowledgegeneration communities, including scientific institutions.The presentation would demonstrate some examples of social turbulence and climate related stresses on livelihood of local people in Mongolia and highlight a potential of science and coherent policy exercises.
