Evidence snapshot for Russia
The evidence shows Russia implementing several large-scale social and environmental programmes: peatland rewetting across 73,050 hectares reduced fire extent and conservatively cut emissions by over 36,000 tCO2eq/year, while digital-literacy training reached over 500,000 pensioners across 76 regions, though annual enrolment covers less than 2% of the pensioner population. A fertility-support cash policy raised long-run fertility by approximately 0.15 children per woman but peer-reviewed research finds it reinforced traditional gender roles rather than advancing workplace equality. These cases illustrate Russia's capacity to execute durable, rigorously studied programmes at scale, though with mixed outcomes on equity objectives.
