Lorinet Foundation, Regional Partner of Inspiring Mongolia 2025, held a Youth Rehabilitation Film Screening on 5 February 2026 at the Swiss Club, Singapore. ‘Dandelion, Resilience Behind the Silence’ made it to the semi-finals of Inspiring Asia Micro Film Festival in 2025, selected to compete from almost 900 submissions across Asia. The micro film takes viewers inside Mongolia’s juvenile detention centre to hear directly from young people about their hidden struggles with mental health. Through intimate storytelling, the film reveals their experiences of trauma, the weight of social and family pressures, and the stigma they face. At the same time, it uncovers their resilience, dreams, and the quiet strength that persists even in the harshest conditions.
Empowering juvenile offenders to reintegrate back into society, Lorinet Foundation supports the Christina Noble Children’s Foundation Mongolia’s (CNCF) Youth Rehabilitation and Reintegration (YRR) programme that addresses the substantial void in providing holistic assistance to young individuals in the criminal justice system, serving male and female juvenile offenders aged between 14-19 years old who live in the detention centre in Ulaanbaatar.
The Christina Noble Children’s Foundation is a British Registered International non-governmental organisation (NGO), with an established commitment to addressing the pressing needs of vulnerable communities in Asia grappling with poverty, heightened risks of exploitation, violence, and human trafficking.
Director of Li Foundation, Candy was honored to attend the event and meet with Lorinet Foundation’s Board members, Mr Pierre Lorinet, Ms Bolor Lorinet and the their team from Mongolia. Ms. Amaraa Bor, Mongolia Country Director at CNCF was also there in-person to share with us about the works at CNCF.
Beyond the screening, oil paintings and paper cutting art pieces from Mongolia were sold to raise funds for the Youth Rehabilitation and Reintegration programme at the event.
The book showcases how the participants challenged their limits and conquered the World Marathon Challenge and North Pole Marathon to inspire people to challenge their own limits and pursue their dreams boldly.
The book tells the stories behind the event which saw the largest number of people in history running 1045km round Taiwan in 19 days.
