Evidence snapshot for Belarus
Belarus's National Peatland Rewetting Programme has restored 89,400 hectares of degraded peatlands since 2007, avoiding an estimated 3 million tCO₂e over 20 years, making it Europe's largest UNDP-supported peatland restoration effort. In 2021, a telecom operator and UNFPA jointly launched digital-literacy training for older adults across all six Belarusian regions, though no data on participant numbers or learning outcomes were published. Belarus's 2019 parliamentary elections returned 40% women to the House of Representatives, but this high female representation occurred within a non-competitive electoral system that failed international democratic standards, illustrating that descriptive representation can coexist with unfree governance.
