Having been involved with the Russian immigrants who came to Ireland in the 'Celtic Tiger years, in Russian speaking Congregation, I can tell you the language barrier is a massive one. Ditto Chinese. Nobody translates Permaculture docs into readable' Russian or Chinese. Nobody learns the language to help them, or provides free literature in that tongue. All of those things are done by us over the decades and were pivotal in attracting people. In Dublin, we currently have at least 6 foreign language speaking congratulations and perhaps another half dozen smaller groups = 12 foreign languages.
Behind each group is a number of selfless individuals who give years of their lives to get these off the ground. Permaculture doesn't seem to have the personal interest in Russians, or the volunteer spirit to bring this about. How many Russian documents have you read?

Is there any way to reach Russians in Russia and encourage them to join
this forum. The language barrier would be a problem but maybe there are
translators around to help.
People living on farms, on homesteads, in villages, agrarian communities or
in urban settings would be great to have onboard for discussion thereby
expanding the global community addressed by the Permaculture movement.
