Abstract

Abstract:

Sustainable housing in neighborhoods is a crucial factor that is being emphasized globally today, given the focus on implementing practical planning. The issue of sustainable housing in different neighborhoods not only highlights disparities but also allows for the development of appropriate strategies and provisions for achieving housing sustainability. This research aims to identify the most essential factors for sustainable housing development in various neighborhoods of Urmia. To this end, criteria for achieving sustainable housing development were first identified, prioritized, and scored based on the opinions of 10 expert housing specialists. According to the experts, the high-priority goals in Urmia are promoting a sense of belonging in neighborhoods, enhancing social security, increasing public participation, providing access to healthy housing, reducing pollution, and minimizing environmental damage. Based on these goals, comparisons were made in two areas: physical-environmental sustainability and socio-economic sustainability. Then, the MetaSwot model was used to compare the level of implementation of sustainable housing principles across different neighborhoods. The research findings indicate that environmental protection, adequate living space, proper housing equipment, physical stability, and a dynamic community are the most essential internal factors for achieving sustainable housing in Urmia. At the same time, factors such as a weak economy, the destruction and loss of orchards, rising housing material prices, and cultural conflicts are the most influential external factors. Overall, considering the scientific criteria related to the subject, planned neighborhoods offer more suitable conditions for realizing sustainable housing, followed by older, unplanned neighborhoods.

مسکن  پایدار در محلات یکی از عوامل اساسی است که امروزه با توجه به تأکید بر عملیاتی شدن برنامه‌ریزی‌ها در سطح جهانی مطرح می‌شود. مقایسه مسکن پایدار در محلات مختلف نه تنها باعث شناسایی تفاوت‌ها می‌شود، بلکه امکان ارائه راهکارهای مناسب برای دستیابی به پایداری مسکن را نیز فراهم می‌آورد. هدف این تحقیق شناسایی ضروری‌ترین عوامل توسعه مسکن پایدار در محلات مختلف شهر ارومیه است. بدین منظور، ابتدا معیارهای مرتبط با دستیابی به توسعه مسکن پایدار با استفاده از نظرات 25 کارشناس خبره در حوزه مسکن مشخص، اولویت‌بندی و امتیازدهی شد. نتایج نشان می‌دهد که از نظر کارشناسان، اهداف با اولویت بالا شامل ارتقای حس تعلق در محلات، افزایش امنیت اجتماعی، ارتقای مشارکت مردمی، دسترسی به مسکن سالم، کاهش میزان آلاینده‌ها و کاهش تخریب محیط زیست است. بر اساس این اهداف، مقایسه‌ها در دو حیطه پایداری کالبدی- محیطی و پایداری اجتماعی- اقتصادی انجام گرفت و سپس با استفاده از مدل متاسوات، میزان تحقق اصول مسکن پایدار در محلات مختلف مورد بررسی قرار گرفت. نتایج این بررسی‌ها نشان داد که عوامل داخلی محله مانند حفاظت از محیط زیست، فضای کافی برای زندگی، امکانات مناسب برای مسکن و وجود یک جامعه پویا از مهم‌ترین مؤلفه‌های دستیابی به مسکن پایدار در ارومیه محسوب می‌شوند.از سوی دیگر، عوامل بیرونی که دستیابی به پایداری مسکن در محلات ارومیه را با چالش‌هایی مواجه می‌کند شامل اقتصاد ضعیف، تخریب و نابودی باغات، افزایش قیمت مصالح ساختمانی و تعارضات فرهنگی است. این عوامل می‌توانند مانع از تحقق اهداف پایداری مسکن شده و کیفیت زندگی ساکنان را تحت تأثیر قرار دهند.
