Show transcript
Over 70% of Russia is considered to be rural. It is home to 25% of the population. Inequality in Russia is most marked between rural and urban areas. Average rural incomes are 57% lower than urban. Inequality leads to a number of differences such as higher rates of poverty and poorer infrastructure and services. Russia officially recognises 40 Indigenous peoples. They make up 0.2% of the population yet inhabit 65% of Russia. Challenges for Indigenous Peoples include: loss of land, access to services, population decline and cultural erosion.
