Author(s): Batbaatar Battulga and Batbold Tserendash
Abstract: This study examines the fulfilment of demands by civil movements between 2004 and 2009 and their impact on the Mongolian political system. Using an outcome-based evaluation (OBE) and the Composite Impact Index (CII), the research assesses both direct policy outcomes and indirect systemic effects of civil movements. Data were collected from official government documents, parliamentary records, media reports, and civil society archives. The results show that only 29% of demands were fully or partially fulfilled, indicating moderate impact, while 71% remained unmet or unresolved. Although policy implementation was limited, civil movements contributed to transparency, citizen participation, and institutional responsiveness. Combining quantitative and qualitative indicators provides a nuanced understanding of the social movement impact in transitional democracies.
