 note = {At present, Mongolia criminalizes the sex industry. Social outcasts and unprotected by law, workers in this sector suffer from multiple health issues, violence, and poverty. Using the functional approach to comparative law, this article describes the extent of the problem in Mongolia, compares the main legal approaches to controlling the sex industry, and suggests that a modified version of the Nevada Model might assist Mongolia to respond to the present failures. While some research on prostitution in Mongolia was conducted between 2010 and 2015, much of this was the result of the mining industry's concerns over sexually transmitted diseases. As a result, some legislative action was taken to curtail the health crisis and problems associated with human trafficking while maintaining the idea that the law could abolish the trade. Since then, there has been a paucity of attention on the subject though enough evidence exists that shows individuals forced into this trade are suffering from many health issues, violence, and poverty. This paper will establish that there is a need to shift the approach away from the idea of complete prohibition to some form of regulatory control to improve the conditions of those who work in this trade. A modified form of the Nevada Model provides a solution in that it is suited to the mining tradition, allows for public scrutiny of the industry, and affords the sex worker a violent-free environment and a chance to escape poverty.},
