The research was descriptive-analytical that its analysis was performed by using the Delphi technique. The results of research showed that environmental education as a school of nature has a direct and indirect impact on the components of sustainable urban livability. Also, the amount of impact the whole dimension of nature schools for environmental, economic and social indicators was 0.538, 0.521 and 0.429, respectively. Therefore, the establishing and development of nature schools will improve the urban livability.In addition to this amount, the direct effect, which indicates the impact of the indicator on the livability without interfering with other indicators, is slightly different from the overall effect which indicating the direct and great impact of indicators on the livability.
