Abstract (69 Views)
Aims: This study aimed to explain a sustainable urban regeneration model emphasizing the spatial justice evaluation in informal settlements of Shahid Bahonar Neighborhood, Mashhad city.
Methodology: This applied research was conducted in 2024-2025 in three main stages: assessing the residents' conditions, analyzing spatial justice, and evaluating the regeneration process. Initially, data were collected through two questionnaires: one reflecting the satisfaction of 160 residents and another capturing the perspectives of 21 urban management experts. The first questionnaire included 17 questions on spatial justice from the residents' viewpoint, while the second contained 30 questions regarding compensatory justice and its influencing indicators. Data from this stage were analyzed using the one-sample t-test and the Shannon entropy weighting method. The design of the regeneration process was developed through in-depth interviews with 31 experts. These interviews were recorded, transcribed, and analyzed using open coding. From the extracted concepts, the stages of the urban regeneration process were developed.
Findings: The Results of the one-sample t-test showed a significant level of dissatisfaction across most indicators of urban compensatory justice. The highest levels of dissatisfaction were observed in governance and environmental areas, whereas some basic services such as credit facilities and insurance coverage were rated more positively. According to the prioritization results of spatial justice indicators, cultural-identity justice held the highest importance, while economic and structural indicators were considered less important. Based on spatial justice indicators and interview findings, the stages of the urban regeneration process in Shahid Bahonar neighborhood were summarized into seven main phases.
Conclusion: The urban regeneration process with a compensatory justice approach was designed in seven stages: identification and analysis of the current situation, stakeholder analysis, localized needs assessment, policy formulation, design of institutional and financial models, implementation of the regeneration program, and justice-oriented monitoring.
