Program accomplishments
- Since the advent of Islamist rule in 1979, Irans political nature has hindered implementation of national policies based on technical expertise, scientific reference and serious researched-based evaluation of Irans social and economic development needs and requirements. This practice has had consequential effect on Irans economy, industry, infrastructure, social development, natural resources and its environment seriously hampering the aspiration of generations of Iranians.The systematic marginalization of Irans academic, expert and scientific communities away from Irans policy-making infrastructure, for the past four decades, has had momentous effect on every aspect of life for Irans citizenry.While the broad consensus, in all democratic societies, is that good policy is based on informed, fact-based expertise and real data, Islamist governance in Iran devises its national policies based on ideological dogma resulting in paralysis and serious across-the-board setbacks.Standing together as one community of forward thinking Iranian technical experts, engineers, environmentalists, legal scholars, medical experts, scientists and energy experts, all respected leaders in our fields and committed to rigorous scientific research, we find our role as essential and mission-critical to return prosperity, progress and modernity as the path forward for the future for Iran.For the first time in Irans history, Qoqnoos Phoenix Project of Iran seeks to bring together serious subject matter experts, scholars and scientists, from thirteen disciplines to forge innovative solutions to Irans challenges.
