The aim of this study was to determine the role of sustainable social participation in improving the quality of urban life in Parsabad, Ardebil province. In terms of nature, the research is a descriptive-analytical and was conducted by survey method. The statistical population of the study included citizens over 18 years of age in the city of Parsabad Moghan. Using the Cochran sample size determination formula, 380 people were determined as the sample size. The studied samples were selected using random sampling method. The data collection tool was a researcher-made questionnaire the reliability of which was confirmed with a coefficient higher than 0.7 using Cronbach's alpha test. The independent variable of research (social participation) included the independent components of the study including reciprocal relationship, mutual commitment, and mutual expectation. According to the research findings, the components of reciprocity, mutual commitment and sense of belonging simultaneously have a significant effect on sustainable development. Examining the simultaneous effect of four components of social participation on sustainable urban development and implementation in the territory of an inter-city can be a new approach in this field of urban studies.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the land use distribution of urban neighborhood parks in terms of access standards to residential areas and population density in District 3 of Tabriz. Research method is analytical descriptive.The method of data collection is documentary. The statistical population of the research is region 3 of Tabriz city. Descriptive and spatial data of these parks are stored in the form of a database in GIS software and then by designing the network, accessing the area of region 3 of Tabriz municipality and determining the geographical location of the parks in that area. The service of each park was identified using a network analysis model. Also, using the approach of spatial proximity of parks, the current situation of District 3 of Tabriz Municipality in terms of the duration of citizens' access to parks was studied and areas outside the service coverage of parks were estimated. In addition to the above method, Thiessen analysis and buffering methods were used to determine the functional area and duration of access to each park. The results showed that by calculating the space covered by the service parks in the neighborhood parks of District 3 of the municipality, the existing parks in the neighborhoods of this area cover only 71.1% of the area under study. Therefore, the northern part of this area of the city needs to locate new neighborhood parks in order to maximize the access coverage of this part of District 3. In addition, the southern part of this area of the city, due to the uninhabited lack of access network, currently has no need to create a neighborhood park. Investigating and evaluating the access of citizens to urban parks from two dimensions is within this research realm, one in the form of GIS software and the other using two models of buffering and tsin is a type of innovation in this field of study.
