The Tripartite Council of Khanbogd soum (TPC) was established in 2015 with equal representation of the Khanbogd soum administration, the herder community, and Oyu Tolgoi LLC. The TPC is the engagement platform for the parties to inform and address various topics related to the herders, pasture and water.
It started from the dispute resolution process of two complaints that were formally lodged to Office of the Compliance Advisor/Ombudsman (CAO) by the local herders in 2012 and 2013.
TPC parties are committed to ensuring implementation of the two agreements and meet quarterly to monitor implementation progress.
