Graduates, faculty members and students of the Fashion Design Department at CITI University’s School of Architecture and Design successfully participated in the RUNWAY TO RECOVERY fashion design competition, organized as part of the "REFASHION MONGOLIA 2026" project. The project is being jointly implemented by South Korean companies KOLON FnC and K.O.A Co., Ltd., the Mongolian University of Science and Technology, and UBS television, with support from KOICA’s Mongolia Office.

Professional designers and students aged 18–34 participated in teams of three in the competition, which aims to raise public awareness of the value of sustainable fashion and support young designers. Of the 15 teams that competed in the closed round, eight advanced to the open round and three to the final. The NEW ERA team, consisting of fourth-year Fashion Design students A. Garid, G.
