Evidence snapshot for Belarus
Belarus has implemented Europe's largest UNDP-supported peatland restoration programme, rewetting 89,400 hectares of degraded peatlands since 2007 and avoiding an estimated 3 million tonnes of CO₂e over 20 years. The country achieved 40% female representation in its 2019 parliamentary elections, though independent observers found the election lacked genuine political competition and democratic standards. A digital literacy initiative launched in 2021 by telecom operator A1 and UNFPA trained social workers to teach smartphone basics to older adults across all six Belarusian regions, though no data on participant numbers or learning outcomes were published.
