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.
