Iranian environmentalists are advocating for the establishment of an award honoring Finnish conservationist Ellen Vuosalo, known as the “mother of Siberian cranes,” for her significant contributions to wildlife preservation in Iran’s Mazandaran province. Over five decades, Vuosalo pioneered crane research and educated local communities on wildlife protection, emphasizing sustainable management of wetlands. Her efforts included forming the Mazandaran Crane Conservation Association and engaging with various universities. Vuosalo’s legacy, which challenges future conservationists to adapt to environmental changes, continues to inspire dedication to wildlife conservation. She passed away at 95, leaving behind a profound impact on biodiversity preservation.
A national campaign in Tehran has successfully identified and repatriated over 300 children involved in child labour, with about 85% being unauthorized migrants. The initiative stresses family support in combating exploitation and promotes prioritizing education over work. A new program, in collaboration with UNICEF, will offer conditional aid to families who withdraw their children from street labour and enroll them in school, launching on June 12, the World Day against Child Labour. This effort coincides with Iran’s hosting of over 6 million Afghan nationals, highlighting the need for collaborative solutions to migration and child welfare issues.
