One of the main policies of the country and one of the most important strategies of the government in recent years is the "Mehr Housing Project" with the aim of providing housing for different groups. The purpose of this study is "Comparative evaluation of residents' satisfaction with Mehr housing in Zahedan." The research is applied in terms of purpose and descriptive-analytical in terms of nature and method. In the process of collecting data and information, documentary and field methods have been used. The statistical population of the study is the residents of Mehr Shargh and Gharb housing complexes in Zahedan and includes 4950 heads of households. The sample size was estimated to be 562 heads of households based on Cochran's formula and SPSS software was used to analyze the data. The results of Pearson correlation analysis show that there is a significant relationship between age and monthly income and education with satisfaction with the residential complex. However, the results of t-test showed that the satisfaction of the residents of Mehr Zahedan housing complexes with a total average of 79 sub-criteria is lower than the average (2.41). Friedman test was used for the final ranking of indicators and the most important effect is the performance-structural index including accesses and facilities. SAWARA model was used to analyze the most effective indicators affecting the quality of housing according to experts. The most important content indicators are the presence of CCTV cameras and closer proximity to the shopping center. Finally, the results of independent t-test to compare the two residential complexes of Mehr showed that there is no significant difference in terms of satisfaction in Mehr housing in Zahedan.

Urban viability is one of the basic foundations of sustainable urban development. The viability approach can be attributed to increased awareness of unstable urban life patterns, which in the long run reduces the potential of environmental resources. The term 'viability' refers to the degree to which a society is provided based on the needs and capacities of its members. Therefore, the main objective of the present study is to prioritize the main components of viability in three Kish Island resorts namely: Sadaf, Me'mar and Sahar. The research method is descriptive - analytical based on preliminary data. Data collection was done by documentary and survey methods using questionnaire. Collected data was processed using SPSS and Smart PLS software. Three methods of multivariate regression analysis, stepwise analysis and PLS path analysis were used to prioritize the components and to determine their contribution and role in the viability of the study area. Based on the results of the research, the main factors affecting the viability of the three Kish camps were prioritized based on the degree of their importance as follows: services and access, social, economic, physical and environmental components, respectively. One can improve the viability of the study area by planning to enhance and organize these components based on their degree of importance.

The Eco-village is a model for promoting sustainable living by removing environmental, social and economic destabilization through the implementation of sustainable structures and practices in rural areas. The main purpose of the present study is to evaluate the status of key indicators of eco-village pattern in tourist villages on the margins of Choghakhor wetland. The present study is applied in terms of purpose and is descriptive-analytic in nature. A researcher-made questionnaire with a reliability of 0.89 was used to evaluate the key indices of eco-village in the studied touristy villages. The statistical population of the study consisted of all local residents and tourists present in Choghakhor. The sample size in this study was 311 persons estimated according to Cochran formula with error of 0.05. The results show that the studied villages are not in desirable condition in terms of all three dimensions of eco-village, because the mean value of the results is just 2.76. The results also show that the natural dimension indices of eco-village pattern are better than other dimensions and indices in the studied villages. Socio-economic indices are in the following ranks. Therefore, the following three solutions can be offered: 1- Efforts to attract domestic and foreign investment, 2- Supporting useful and early plans for environmental efficiency, and 3- Incorporation of ecovillage projects as national plans by local and regional authorities.

Today, rural construction is considered as one of the main components of the rural develop-ment. one of the most important plans for the improvement and development of the villages is the implementation of the Rural Guide Plan. In this context, the present research is to define criteria for assessing the environmental effects of implementing the Rural Guide Plan according to rele-vant sources. In this study the research methodology in terms of objective is applied and in terms of method it is analytical-descriptive. The major parts of the required data were collected through field studies and using questionnaires. The collected data was then fed into the statistical package for the social science (SPSS) in order to be analyzed and one sample T- test was utilized. Based on the Cochran formula, the sample size was 311 households which were determined by simple random sampling method among families in Shoosti- Zamni village, Babamidan village in Rostam County. The results of the study revealed that despite implementing the Rural Guide Plan problems such as air pollution due to the unhygienic disposal of waste, water stagnations and flooding out of water due to unprincipled constructions of the street curbs and the sidewalks and expansion of pollution caused by animal waste have considerably negative environmental impacts on the villag-es. In these regards, the main findings include the lack or defect in environmental studies during preparing plans and also defect in predicting the consequences of implementing the ten-stage pro-jects in the environments of the villages. Finally, based on the findings of the field studies and the results, some guidelines were provided as feedbacks in order to modify their approach to intervene in the natural environment and the rural environment. The most important of them include correc-tion of service plan description and leading them towards prioritizing environmental studies as well as to the region (habitat)-centered approach in preparing and implementing projects.
