Problem Design: In urban areas, the concept of green infrastructure has been highlighted as a means to improve the quality of life and well-being of residents. Green infrastructure refers to a network of interconnected green spaces that provide multiple ecosystem services. By integrating green infrastructure in urban planning, cities can reduce the adverse effects of urbanization and at the same time improve the livability and sustainability of the urban environment. To achieve sustainable development through green spaces, it is necessary to prioritize them in urban planning processes.
The Aim of the Research: To consider the fair distribution of green spaces, ensure access for all members of society, and design multi-purpose spaces that meet different needs. In addition, sustainable management practices, such as water conservation, use of native plant species, and community involvement, are critical for the long-term preservation of green spaces.
Research Method: In terms of methodology, it is descriptive-analytical with practical purposes, the research method is in the form of preparing a questionnaire and data extracted from Geographic Information System (GIS) software and using Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) done.
Research Results: Based on the analysis of 4 main criteria and 9 effective sub-criteria, the results show the importance of the options of increasing social interactions, reducing environmental pollution, and education and training of the body and mind along with increasing density, respectively, with scores of 0.173, 0.161 and 0.139, according to the selection priority, and based on them, plans have been proposed to improve green spaces in the 10th area of Tabriz metropolis.

Urbanization as the second revolution in human culture, has caused a change in human relations with each other and far with the rapid growth of urbanization and increasing problems in the field of housing, job creation and income, providing public health and physical and mental health, increasing environmental problems Biodiversity.The present study is applied in terms of purpose and descriptive-analytical in terms of nature. The data required for analysis were collected using a questionnaire and the Likert scale. The validity of the questionnaire was confirmed and its reliability was confirmed by Cronbach's alpha of 0.793. Dependent variables in the present study, which include walkability and livability, which is a set of economic, social, environmental and physical variables as an independent variable using EXCEL, ARCGIS, SPSS software and statistical tests with t- Pearson test and correlation were analyzed. Based on the results of T-test in the environmental dimension, the condition of all areas in livability is appropriate. In the pedestrian dimension, the most responses in the very high category belonged to the condition of cleaning the lane and maintaining the pedestrian space, which accounted for 14.6% of the responses. Based on the results of the T-test, the pedestrian in the three areas obtained an average higher than 3, which indicates the appropriate condition of the pedestrian in the eyes of the respondents. In general, based on the results of a single-sample t-test for areas, among the three areas of the study area, the best situation in the pedestrian dimension belongs to area 2 with an average difference of 5.93%. In the next ranks are Zones 3 and 1, respectively, and in the field of livability, based on the results obtained as presented in the map, it indicates that the livability situation in the whole Zone 2 is higher than average
