Abstract

The Basic Pension Insurance System for Urban and Rural Residents is a vital livelihood policy that guarantees rural elderly residents' basic living needs, promotes urban-rural integration and maintains social equity. Rural pension security is crucial to grassroots governance stability, rural revitalization and social security system improvement.Nevertheless, the system faces prominent implementation dilemmas at the grassroots level. Taking Town B of Q County as the research object, this paper adopts questionnaire surveys and interviews to explore the system's operational problems, including insufficient policy cognition, unreasonable participation structure and low resident satisfaction. Such issues stem from defective institutional design, inadequate publicity, weak grassroots administration and residents' subjective constraints. Accordingly, this paper proposes optimization strategies from institutional improvement, targeted publicity and service upgrading, aiming to promote the sustainable and high-quality development of rural pension insurance and enhance social stability.
