ULAN BATOR: The charity donation ceremony themed "Under the Same Blue Sky, Building Human Love Together" and the celebration marking the seventh anniversary of the Chinese-funded Rehabilitation and Development Center for Children with Disabilities in Mongolia were held here on Monday.
The Chinese Embassy in Mongolia donated pharyngeal muscle rehabilitation equipment to the center and funded the publication of 500 copies of the Care Guide for Children with Cerebral Palsy. The donation is expected to strengthen rehabilitation services and promote evidence-based family care for local children with cerebral palsy and swallowing disorders.
Cao Li, acting charge d'affaires of the Chinese Embassy in Mongolia, said the center, established with Chinese assistance, is an important livelihood project supported by the two countries' leadership. It is also Mongolia's largest facility dedicated to the rehabilitation of children with disabilities, equipped with modern medical facilities and comprehensive services. The center has brought hope to children with disabilities and their families across the country.
Amarsaikhan Khishigbayar, director of the Rehabilitation and Development Center for Children with Disabilities in Mongolia, said the rehabilitation equipment and professional reference materials donated by China were of great significance to the center.
She noted that the new equipment would substantially enhance the center's capacity to diagnose and treat swallowing disorders, while the guidebook would help more families acquire standardized and scientifically grounded care knowledge and skills. These resources, she added, would bring tangible benefits to children with disabilities and their families throughout Mongolia.
