Abstract

This issue examines the changing conditions for environmental activism in Russia since the start of Russia’s war against Ukraine in 2022. Anastassia Obydenkova analyzes external influences on Russian environmental activism, highlighting the growing isolation from Western organizations, Russia’s suspended participation in international forums, and China’s growing influence. Elizabeth Plantan examines the impact of the war on environmental civil society, focusing on activists in Russia, those in exile, and international funders. Arina Loginova examines government efforts to co-opt environmental NGOs and finds that independent groups are increasingly relying on partnerships with the private sector.
