E/C.12/MNG/CO/4 The Committee recommends that the State party take effective measures to address the increasing levels of air pollution and the worsening health situation of people in Ulaanbaatar and in Ger areas, including by introducing in those areas new heating systems that are energy efficient. HIV/AIDS and other illnesses 27. The Committee is concerned about the insufficient measures taken to prevent HIV/AIDS in the State party, including the limited implementation of laws on health care and HIV/AIDS prevention and related policies. It is also concerned at the practice of mandatory testing for HIV/AIDS. The Committee is further concerned about the high prevalence of liver cancer, attributed to widespread alcohol abuse, as well as the spread of hepatitis B and C, despite the fact that some measures have been taken to address the issue (art. 12). The Committee recommends that the State party reinforce its measures to prevent HIV/AIDS, including through the re-establishment of the National Committee on AIDS and the effective implementation of related laws and policies. It requests the State party to take legislative and any other measures necessary to ensure that HIV/AIDS testing is voluntary and confidential. The Committee also recommends that the State party intensify its efforts aimed at combating alcohol abuse, including through awareness-raising campaigns, and redouble its preventive and treatment measures to combat hepatitis B and C. Right to education 28. The Committee is concerned that nearly 5 per cent of children aged 6–11 are not enrolled in primary school. It is also concerned that boys, children living in remote areas and children belonging to minority groups are overrepresented among those dropping out of school. The Committee is further concerned about the reported deteriorating quality of education in schools in Ulaanbaatar, about schools’ poor infrastructure and about overcrowded classes (arts. 13 and 14). The Committee recommends that the State party intensify its efforts to: (a) Ensure that all children are enrolled in school; (b) Address more effectively the factors identified as root causes of persisting school dropout rates, in particular among boys and children living in remote areas and belonging to minority groups; (c) Allocate sufficient resources to meet children’s right to education in Ulaanbaatar, including by constructing new schools, improving educational materials and training school teachers and personnel; (d) Conduct campaigns to raise awareness of the importance of education, especially among parents. Inclusive education 29. The Committee is concerned that many schools are not accessible to children with disabilities, especially in rural areas, and that many of these children do not attend school. The Committee is further concerned about the lack of teachers trained in working with children with disabilities (arts. 2 (2), 13 and 14). The Committee recommends that the State party address access to inclusive education by children with disabilities, including through the compulsory training of teachers, the development of individual education plans for students; barrier-free physical 9
