Abstract:
Although mega city of Tehran has been a leading city in research projects and implementation of different socio- cultural urban programs, it faces many inter-related problems in many areas, especially in its social fabrics. To cope with these problems, since 2007 urban regeneration programs have been in order for ten years. The main objective of urban planners in carrying out these programs is to move towards more desired social life in the region. Review of regeneration programs shows; planners have neglected the sense of belonging to the living environment and its impact on quality of life. While it is an important factor, which enhances interests to the community and affects residents’ quality of life. The present paper aims at discussing factors affecting reduction of this sense in Harandi neighborhood known as Darvaze Ghar in the region 12 of Tehran. This area experiences many problems, including loosing sense of belonging, which is considered a driving, force for social development. The research is conducted with quantitative and qualitative methods. First; criterion of sense of belonging to the living environment among women and men have been defined. Secondly, quality of life’s patters in the period of 1390-1395 is described. Based on the findings, the most important factors in reducing sense of belonging among men and women of Harandi are: presence of social deviances, illegal economic activities, and negligence of responsible organizations to deliver improved services in the region. It is suggested that planners and urban managers should take into account women’s role in planning and implementation of the programs. Also provision of security, accessibility of services in compliance with male and female residents’ life styles, assessment of the needs and social- economic empowerment of the population should be included continuously in all programs.
