According to Mehr, Editing Thousands of articles, dissertations, and dissertations show that today’s water concerns are on research paths and are rooted in universities. But despite the mass production of scieific research in this field, there is no clear sign of the link between the university, policy making and decision -making.
While the chart of publishing article and scieific works has a growing trend, Iranian water reserves have been declining. Today, the touch of water is not unique to the small towns and the remote village, and the fear of water is rooted in all. In the middle of the summer 1 The big cities and capital of Iran have welcomed the crisis with a drop in water pressure and speculation about a day of holiday more a week to save consumption.
The publication of thousands of articles, theses, and dissertations can be a sign of academics ‘determination to participate in solving society’s problems, but the prevailing conditions show that policymakers and decision makers have no motivation to use the researchers’ findings.
In rece weeks, Massoud Mediian has repeatedly addressed the issue of water crisis and the use of universities to solve the problem. He urged universities to prese their solutions to governme meetings. This can be a sign of serious universities in solving problems But Whether or not the new co -operation between policymakers and the university will lead to a tangible output is a question that the future will answer.
