“Damavand” became the decor of a TV show/ Appreciation of dedicated environmentalists in “Half Century of Protection”


According to the reporter of Fars News Agency Radio and Television, the environmental program “Half a Century of Protection” with the slogan of 50 years of official protection of Iran’s environment, has been on the broadcast schedule of Do Sima channel on Saturdays and Sundays at 11:30 p.m. for some time. “Half a century of protection” produced by Parham Dibaj, has benefited from the presence of artistic figures as ambassadors of the environment in order to preserve various species of animals, and environmentalists and environmental pioneers have also been honored in this program.

Parham Dibaj, the producer of the program “Half a century of protection”, in a conversation with the reporter of Fars news agency radio and television, said about the production process of this program: During these years, in the programs related to the environment, we analyze the subject and topic in order to better understand the environmental damage and After that, let’s try to create a culture in this field. But besides this issue, one issue cannot be easily ignored. For 50 years in Iran, some people who are clear about their duty to themselves, their God and their country have been determined to protect the environment despite all the problems and have made all their efforts in this field. Approximately 10 to 12 percent of Iran’s soil is protected areas, and on average, we have always had 2 to 3 thousand environmentalists (in less periods and more periods) who have lovingly protected this part of Iran’s soil so that it reaches the future generations in a pristine form.

The producer of “Half a Century of Protection” added: A proposal was submitted to Channel 2 by the Environmental Protection Organization for the programs of Section C or promotional-educational programs as the headquarters and center of the environmental headquarters of the national media, and I was chosen to make this program. . What seemed to me was that half a century of dedication of environmentalists and environmentalists has passed without any expectations. My idea, considering the little opportunity we had for production, was to see the positive points of this event, the sacrifices, etc. in the field of the environment.

Dibaj stated that in this program we are going to hear the experiences of people who spent 45 years of their lives in the forests or deserts of Iran and added: These people are unknown people whose words are very audible. In half a century of protection, we talk to these people in the “Half a century of experience” section and honor them with a medal decorated with our country’s flag. Also, in another part of the program, we thought about promoting the protection of different species of wildlife. Different species of birds, aquatic animals, mammals and reptiles that are going extinct and there is a need for culture to protect these rare species.

Pointing out that well-known figures are very influential in the field of environmental protection, the producer of “360 Degree Nature” emphasized: Artists are those whose words and actions are seen more and are respected by people because of their art. Therefore, we invited artists and actors who are concerned about the environment and whose behavior shows a principled and respectful approach to nature to the program.
He emphasized: We asked them to support a specific species by drawing a lottery in each program. We also gave them an environmental protection card from the environmentalists to give them the honor of entering the circle of official environmentalists.
In response to this producer, what is the practical benefit of this happening? He said: If there is a danger for a species somewhere, its habitat is being destroyed, and… the ambassador of that species, as an activist and civil activist, starts asking questions and demanding the protection of that particular species and seeks the support of the people and authorities. It attracts spiritually and materially. In the following, a statue will be awarded to these concerned artists. The environmental activities of many of these artists have been observed, and these people are those who are interested in their country and the environment, and this sweat can also be seen in their artistic works.

In further explanation of the parts of the program, Dibaj stated: In the entertainment and general attractions part of the program, we put the archery competition to measure people’s skill in nature, which is both the skill of being in nature and shooting, concentration and intelligence of people are measured. Archery does not harm nature and does not cause extinction of any species. As an interlude, we will also show the documentaries that I have prepared during these twenty years about the nature of Iran in the form of videos, music-images, etc. In the “biological experience” section, we also have tours with guests in Lar National Park.

Dibaj said about the audience’s feedback on this program: “Half a century of protection” on TV has also had good statistics in terms of views. The program is unique and its idea has been aired for the first time. The decor of this program is Mount Damavand, which can be seen in the foreground. Guests are hosted in the nature of Lar National Park and chat with guests. Besides that, a drink made of wild thyme is also provided to welcome the guests. In the following, together with the guest of the program, we will see different animal and plant species in this nature.
He continued: Coordinating with the guests to be in this space had its own challenges. We tried to use a large number of cameras and create attractiveness in the program in order to keep the flag of Channel Two as the headquarters and center of the environment headquarters of the national media.
In the end, Dibaj said: Considering the form of the program and the visual and content appeals created, I am personally interested in continuing its production, like the “360 Degree Nature” program. 80% of this program was produced in 40 days, and we are also producing several documentary episodes that have been directed to other parts of Iran except Lar National Park.
