Abstract: In the era of globalization, nations worldwide have abundant opportunities to share their unique identities for the sustainable well-being of humanity and to preserve national traditions. This study focuses on the innovative application of Mongolian yurts as a resilient and healthy living environment for nomadic people, examining both physical and psychological aspects, particularly from educational and literacy perspectives. To achieve this objective, the study delves into the innovative application of Mongolian yurts as dwellings and their adaptive health benefits in relation to natural conditions, as well as educational and literacy perspectives. The specific objectives are: (1) to study the natural characteristics and fundamentals of Mongolian yurts, (2) to explore the physical and psychological attributes of yurts as healthy dwellings for nomads, adapting to continental climates, and (3) to examine the process of transmitting knowledge about constructing Mongolian yurts. Research data was collected through document reviews, observations, inquiries, and personal interviews with local families. The findings reveal that Mongolian yurts facilitate the informal transmission of knowledge about constructing dwellings suitable for the environment and promoting health. This is achieved through storytelling, verbal explanations, demonstrations, and hands-on experiences, reflecting the close-knit relationships within families and communities. These relationships extend to the environment, animals, plants, and weather conditions. The study emphasizes the use of indigenous technologies and locally sourced materials, enabling communities to effectively construct yurts tailored to their climatic needs. Moreover, the use of traditional medicine and the knowledge of natural resources are integral parts of the intergenerational transmission of knowledge.
