Aims: One of the important reflections of contemporary urbanization is the emergence and expansion of vulnerable neighborhoods or informal settlements in suburban areas. This study aimed to evaluate the effective factors in the regeneration of city settlements in Zahedan city.
Methodology: This applied-exploratory research was carried out in 2022-2023 in Zahedan city. The data was collected using the environmental scanning technique and literature review. The statistical population was the employees and managers of related institutions, who were selected by purposive sampling (n=50). The analysis of expert opinions was used through a sample t-test. AHP and BSC models were used to analyze the effective factors in the urban regeneration of informal settlements.
