Written report

While natural resources can act as the cornerstone of a country's stability, their lack of proper management can lead to serious problems and even the collapse of the land.  To this end, today, with Dr. Ebrahimi, the head of the Institute for Soil and Watershed Management, we are discussing the effective challenges and strategies in the country's natural resource management.

Today's interview is with Dr. Adel Jalili, a well-known name in the field of natural resources and long-time director of the National Botanical Garden of Iran; someone who has worked for years to protect endangered species and expand ecological knowledge, but now speaks at a time when the news of the dissolution of the Natural Resources Organization in the new government has raised serious concerns

Reducing water exploitation in the country’s provinces has now become one of the main environmental concerns; an issue that experts believe is the only way to achieve resilience, reduce imbalances, and control land subsidence. However, this major change requires a reconsideration of livelihoods and businesses that are heavily dependent on water.

Iran has been facing a serious water crisis for years; a crisis that not only threatens the daily lives of people but also affects the country’s future security and economy. In this conversation, Dr. Kaveh Madani discusses both the hidden and apparent aspects of this issue and its consequences.

The water, which once was the life of the Iranian plateau and the glory of civilization, is now caught in the mismanagement, corruption and failed policies.  The sources of Karun, Zayandehrood and Hirmand have become dry lines on paper, and the huge wetlands and lakes of Iran have become desert and desert centers.  In this program, we will examine this crisis and the prospects for rebuilding this expensive heritage with Nick Kosar, an explicit water and environmental analyst.

The monarchy in Iran was not just a form of government, part of our historical and cultural identity.  But why did it collapse and is it possible to return?  Can it stand by democracy like some countries or is it permanently entrusted to history?

Dr. Fazel Meybodi, with a critical view of the role of jurisprudence in contemporary Iranian governance, challenged the relation between traditional jurisprudence and social and technological developments, and emphasized that traditional jurisprudence and clergy are not only responsive to today's needs, but also imposing their formal readings, even in the form of formal jurisprudence.

Three years after the revolution, the Islamic Republic of Iran has formed the path of Iranian society, and today a significant portion of the people are unhappy with this method of governance;  Dissatisfaction that has been reflected in various ways in both the streets and gatherings and in articles and writings.  Now the fundamental question is, does this nation still be able to give birth?

When officials themselves are critical of the system and the government does not really exist, from the danger of human technology and slavery by machines to the crisis of power such as electricity and livelihoods, everyone shows that awareness and education are the only way to save.

In an age where truth no longer requires torture but is suffocated by labels, boundaries have shifted; lies don the cloak of piety and faith is seated in the chair of accusation. In such a world, the question arises: who should defend religion—clergy or the people, rulers or protesters?

Iran, in the midst of complex crises, faces once again a decisive question: change or continuity? The statement by Mir Hossein Mousavi and the referendum proposal by intellectuals have revived a serious debate about the country's political future; can the Constituent Assembly open a path to freedom or will it become a new ground for despotism?

Three years after a revolution that promised "people's rule", Iran is still involved in multi -political, economic, social and cultural nodes;  From the memory of the war that has remained in a group based on rent and monopoly, the class divide, and ideology that has become power.  Now the key question is: Is the transition to democracy in Iran a vital necessity or a unattainable dream?

Referendums in Iran have always been a sensitive and controversial issue; from the first experience in 1979 to today. More than four decades have passed since the first referendum in Iran, but people are still deprived of the means to directly participate in the country's major decision-making. Can referendums be a way to solve Iran's political and social crises, or is it just a slogan repeated at political junctures?

It is expected that all academics strive for their academic independence and freedom; a university professor should not consider servitude, obedience, subservience, and loyalty to superiors as a model. The model for a university professor should be Socrates.

We stand on a razor's edge; between nationalism and ethnocentrism, integration and disintegration. Iran today faces fateful questions about identity, regional justice, and the danger of balkanization; a topic that has made the conversation with this program's controversial guest one of the most sensitive contemporary topics.

The topic of tonight's program is "water"; the simplest element of life that has become the most complex governance issue in Iran today, where rivers are drying up, wetlands are dying, and mismanagement has pushed our land to the brink of water death.
 

As the crises of legitimacy, livelihoods, trust and efficiency have encompassed Iran, the referendum and the Constituent Assembly have once again become the subject of the day.  In a conversation with us, Ali Afshari, a political activist, emphasizes that the idea is not an immediate solution, but a "compass" to guide political and social action.

Taghi Azad Aramaki: Today's Iranian society is vibrant, ready for change, and demanding fundamental reforms; but it cannot tolerate revolution and collapse. The only path is to rely on civil society and referendums.

Morteza Al-Vairi: Mir Hossein Mousavi's statement is not simply a response to foreign aggression; it is a warning to listen to the people's voices and avoid the path of collapse. The solution is civil pressure and turning to the people's vote.
