The purpose of implementing the Hadi project is to achieve a desirable and satisfactory life in rural areas. Based on this, it seems necessary to evaluate the environmental quality of the villages in which the Hadi project has been implemented, considering its impact on ecological spaces as an inevitable approach in the field of rural planning. The present study is an attempt to investigate the impact of the implementation of Hadi projects on improving the environmental quality of rural settlements. The research method of this study is descriptive-analytical and is based on documentary sources and field studies based on completing the questionnaire. The statistical population of the study included all the villages (18 villages) in which the Hadi project was implemented and among them 8 villages that had been under construction for at least 5 years since the implementation of the Hadi project were selected by sampling method. Then, considering the number of households living in the sample villages and using the Cochran's formula, 227 households were considered as the sample household size. Data analysis was performed using ArcGIS and SPSS software. The results of the Wilcoxon test show that the implementation of the Hadi project in the villages of the study area has been effective in improving the environmental quality of rural settlements. Also, the results of one-way analysis of variance test show that the implementation of Hadi projects on physical, aesthetic and visual perception components has more effective than other components in the environmental quality of rural settlements.

Iran’s rural sector faces many problems in terms of ecological, physical, economic and social dimensions. These problems lead to the situation in which villages become places for high-income urban groups, physical unrest, land use change, and a lack of attention to the process of developing policies and programs against their products and outcomes. As a result, the future of physical development in rural areas faces a serious challenge. The aim of the present study was to analyze the current situation in the framework of developing a spatial policy for the sustainable physical development of rural areas of the country. In this regard, both the content of rural development policies and the process of formulating these policies and the role of effective factors in it have been examined. The method of obtaining cognition in this research is qualitative, which is divided into two

1- method of analysis of directional qualitative content; and 2 - Grand Theory. The results show that the existing spatial policy development framework for sustainable physical development of rural areas in Iran consists of policy factors, policy processes and policy content. Important factors such as the lack of general policies of the political system in rural development, centralism and the marginal position of rural society at the national level affect the framework of spatial policy development. Also, current policy processes, following the factors, have several challenges that include sectoral and centralized policies, as well as the lack of coherence and coordination of agencies in the development of programs. Therefore, solving these challenges requires reforming processes and institutions instead of expanding administrative organization, integrating agricultural and rural development policies, and ultimately creating and strengthening clusters, systems, and networks. Analysis of the qualitative content of the documents showed that the factors of planning, budgeting and formulation of national sustainable development strategy, the need for coordination of sectors and communication of different national and local levels as well as economic dimension, infrastructure-physical dimension have the greatest role and influence in developing spatial development policy of rural areas.

One of the weaknesses of urban renewal and improvement projects is the mere physical look at worn-out structures. The aim of this study is to analyze the adaptation of worn-out tissue area to the poverty areas of Ghaemshahr city. The present study is applied in terms of purpose and descriptive-analytical in terms of method. The data related to the theoretical foundations of the research have been prepared in the form of libraries and documents and the raw data of the research have been extracted from the statistical blocks of Ghaemshahr city, which has been prepared based on the 2011 census of the Statistics Center of Iran. For scale-lessing 36 urban poverty indicators, fuzzy method has been used in Excel software environment. Hot spot method has been used in ArcGIS software environment for zoning poverty. The area of ​​the worn-out texture has also been extracted from the studies of the Ghaemshahr city renovation and improvement plan and its boundary has been drawn on the statistical blocks. With the adaptation of the worn-out tissue range and the poverty zones, it has become clear that large areas of poverty are not within the worn-out tissue range. This deprives these areas of poverty of benefits and facilities related to improvement, renovation and re-creation, and of discounts and exemptions for the payment of construction fees within the scope of worn-out tissue provided by the government and municipalities. Be useless. Currently, 296/6 hectares of the total area of ​​urban blocks is allocated to worn-out tissue, while 1178 hectares are located in the poverty zones. Surveys show that there is an adaptation and overlap between approximately 10% of the area and population of worn-out tissue and poverty zones. Therefore, it is necessary to review the worn-out texture plan and identify new areas by using more precise methods and considering the issue of urban poverty.

According to many thinkers and development experts, the lack of social capital is one of the obstacles to development in different countries. Social capital is needed for development above all else. Due to the necessity of studying and examining this concept, especially in rural areas that are more deprived of developmental benefits, the present study deals with the leveling of rural centers in Minoudasht county on this basis. In this research, a descriptive-analytical method based on documentary and field studies (questioning) has been applied. The statistical population of the study is the total number of heads of households in which 370 people were estimated using the Cochran's sampling formula. The data obtained from the questionnaire were analyzed in the form of Vikor model and thus the studied villages were ranked and leveled. The spatial distribution of social capital at the rural center level indicates that the northwestern region has less social capital than other areas, including the center, south, southwest, and southeast. Also, the results of Pearson test show that there is a significant relationship between the components of population size and ethnic and linguistic diversity and geographical location with social capital. The relationship between population and ethnic-linguistic diversity is inversely related to social capital, and the relationship between geographical location and social capital is direct. There was no statistically significant relationship between the two components of income and literacy and social capital. Finally, in order to improve the level of social capital in the studied villages, this research suggests the following: holding group panels by local managers to explain the importance of social capital components, further monitoring the performance of local managers in building trust for villagers, strengthening social networks, and continuous education of villagers in order to accept social capital as an important factor in the development of local communities.

One of the main and important tasks of planners in rural areas is to allocate land for various uses according to the role and function and the impact of each use on the others. In fact, the ultimate goal of land use planning is to create a kind of environmental balance and social justice in the process of development of residential areas. Land use planning should address quality objectives such as security, adaptability, landscape and sense of dependence on the environment. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the compatibility of rural land-uses in tourism destinations in terms of public safety, landscape, comfort and convenience. The research method is descriptive and analytical. In this study, eight tourist destinations in Binaloud county were selected and the degree of adaptation was divided into three matrices: 1- Comfort and convenience, 2- Public safety 3- Landscape and view between 49 land-uses among rural experts and the studied villages in a range categorized from fully compatible to completely incompatible. The results showed that all the studied villages are in a comparable situation in terms of adaptability. In the public safety matrix, religious use with an average of 4.16 is in the first place and historical use with an average of 3.25 is in the last place. In the landscape and perspective matrix, religious use with an average of 3.73 ranks first and industrial-workshop use with 1.35 is in the last ranking. In the comfort and convenience matrix, the use of access network and passages with an average of 4.26 is in the first place and the historical use with an average of 3.10 is in the last place. In general, in terms of compatibility, educational land-use with 3.82 is in the first place, and historical use with 3.25 is in the last place.

Examining housing quality issues, among other things, is one of the key issues in housing planning. Housing is a physical place that is considered as a shelter and basic need of the family. The quantity and quality of housing reflects the socio-economic status of the city and many realities of society. Housing is an integrated part of the development of the national economy. Addressing housing indicators as the main planning tool can be considered as one of the most sensitive stages of planning. In order to ensure social growth, the housing sector, in addition to the housing unit itself, also includes the environment around it. Certainly, identifying housing quality levels in different urban areas is an effective step in explaining the quality of life and the sense of satisfaction of city dwellers. The indicators examined in the present study include indicators related to safe housing with sustainability and structural durability and a suitable living space. In the present article, an attempt is made to evaluate the quality of housing in Urmia metropolis based on available statistics. For this purpose, descriptive and analytical methods have been used based on the data available in the Statistics Center of Iran. The raw data in the Excel spreadsheet was converted to 35 indicators and entered into the SPSS software to perform factor analysis on them. To perform factor analysis, eight factors were identified, four of which were primary and the other secondary. The factors were then entered into the GIS environment and analyzed. The results indicate an unequal and inappropriate distribution of quality housing indicators in the city of Urmia. The results showed that 18.21% of the statistical areas are among the most deprived areas, 18.18% are deprived, 53.53% are average, 18.13% and 57.9% are completely deprived. It seems that more attention should be paid to areas 1, 2 and 3 to reduce inequalities to some extent. The results of this study showed that deprived clusters are appeared in regions 3 and 2, and delighted clusters in regions 1 and 4. This situation indicates the existence of class distance and dichotomy in urban space and the difference in having the studied indicators in 2011.

At the present, Payam-e-Noor University (PNU) has more than 500 educational centers and units around the country. The need for rational management of this university requires that new management technologies be used at different levels. The relatively large number of centers, students and users of educational services at Payam-e-Noor University has created a huge amount of data and information. It seems that managing and organizing this amount of data is not in the power of a particular person or persons, even if they are very strong managers. In most cases, managers and officials do not have accurate statistics and information on the various situations of the centers under their management. This can lead to insufficient knowledge and sometimes incorrect decisions in university administration. On the other hand, sometimes the amount of information and data is so large that many people feel lost in the seemingly unrelated mass of information. Creating a comprehensive database containing all the data, statistics, figures and various information related to the centers and units can help manage and organize them. The present study is based on the data of Golestan Comprehensive System of Payam-e-Noor University from 2014 to 2017. In this study, before testing any hypothesis or examining the relationships between variables, the emphasis is on creating a comprehensive database for Payam-e-Noor University that can be used in the environment of geographic information systems. Based on this database and according to different research or administrative-executive needs, various analyzes of this database can be performed. The results of this study are in the form of a comprehensive database in the environment of geographic information systems, which as a powerful tool can provide managers with appropriate and useful solutions. Managers can make the right and effective decisions based on it. Therefore, using the results of this research can lead to better management at the level of central organization, provinces and centers and units of the PNU.

Assessing and measuring the resilience of rural communities is one of the most important tools in determining the sustainability of rural settlements when environmental hazards occur. In the Dehdez section, there are numerous rural and nomadic settlements and are prone to many environmental hazards throughout the year. Rural settlements and their inhabitants do not have adequate resilience in various dimensions in the face of environmental hazards. The purpose of this study is to explain the resilience pattern of rural settlements in Dehdez section of Izeh county. In the theoretical foundations section, various methods are explained based on previous research and theories, and then the conceptual model is presented. The study method is descriptive-analytical. The statistical population under study includes all heads of households in rural areas above 20 households with 3003 people. The sample size was 341 according to Cochran's formula. The research tool includes a questionnaire with 60 questions. The data were analyzed using SPSS 22 and AMOS software and the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, confirmatory factor analysis, and structural equations. The results indicate that each of the coefficients of impact of environmental-natural, social and economic indicators, institutional-managerial and physical-spatial on the resilience of rural settlements located in the research area are 0.73, 0.40, 0.19, and 0.25 respectively. In the resulting resilience pattern of the present study, the rural settlements of Dehdez district are generally in good condition in terms of resilience. This pattern places more weight on the natural index than on the human. As a result, in terms of natural-environmental index and adaptation to environmental conditions, villages have the highest resilience and in the institutional-management index, which requires organizational, institutional and human actions and efficiency, have the lowest resilience.
