Iran Press/Iran News: Ahmad Norouzi, the head of the IRIB World Service, underscored the indispensable relationship between research institutions and the media at the international conference "The Role of Indigenous Identities and Resistance in the Creation of a New World Order." The event, held as a single-day assembly, provided a platform for experts to deliberate on the dynamics shaping the contemporary global landscape.
In an interview with the Iran Press News Agency, Norouzi emphasized the intrinsic bond that must flourish between media entities and scholarly research if the former are to navigate the complexities of an ever-evolving world effectively. He stated, "There is always a very deep connection between research centers and the media; meanwhile, considering the trend of global changes, the media cannot plan its future correctly without scientific research references."
This assertion is reminiscent of the historical symbiosis between knowledge production and dissemination. One might recall the Age of Enlightenment, when philosophers and writers like Voltaire and Rousseau depended heavily on the scientific exploration and academic rigor of their contemporaries to challenge the status quo and inspire societal transformation. Similarly, in the present context, the discernment and insights provided by research centers remain fundamental to the media’s role in informing public opinion and shaping discourse.
Norouzi’s remarks come at a time of pronounced global shifts, wherein the roles of indigenous identities and resistance movements are increasingly scrutinized for their impact on the geopolitical stage. The conference provided a timely forum to examine these themes, inviting reflections that are particularly relevant given the historical context of resistance—be it in the form of anti-colonial struggles or the civil rights movements of the 20th century.
As Norouzi adeptly highlights, the future of media planning and strategy is intrinsically linked to academic and scientific inquiry. This nexus not only ensures the informed reportage of current events but also fosters a more nuanced understanding of the multifaceted forces at play in the construction of a new global order.
