Mongolia has annually celebrated Children's Day since 1952. Following the Democratic Revolution, the State Baga Khural made an amendment to Article 32.3 of the Law on Labor on January 24, 1991, adding 'Mother and Children's Day - June 1' to the list of public holidays. The day was later renamed ‘Children’s Day’ in 2003.
Mongolia has the lowest population density of any country, with most of its vast area being undeveloped and even insufficiently mapped. It is a country where children are not the most unfortunate, compared to those in other nations; nevertheless, the situation of Mongolian children living on the streets is cause for mounting concern, as is the plight of those leading a nomadic life.
