Abstract

Introduction & Purpose: With the development of societies and the complexity of internal relations of societies, the number of crises caused by natural disasters and man-made has increased, and these crises are increasing every day. Among natural disasters, hydro-climatic disasters, including floods and geological disasters, such as earthquakes, bring more human casualties and economic losses than any other disaster, and how to respond to disasters and respond to disasters with the level of development and progress of each country. has it. This study aimed to distribute crisis management in Ahwaz District 4 parks
Method:This research is descriptive-analytical based on the nature of the topic and the goals for which it is predicted. Calculated and obtained based on Cochran's formula. Data were analyzed by SPSS software using T-test and AHP model.
Findings: The mean obtained from completing the questionnaire (3.46) is larger than the mean of the community (3). As a result, the hypothesis is confirmed. The result of the AHP model in this study is that it identifies the best places to create bi-purpose green space in area four in the south and southeast. Due to the high membership function of most layers in these areas and the lack of green space and the existence of adaptation applications such as waste land, this result is confirmed by the land use map.
Conclusion: Parks and gardens play an important role in reducing the extent of action and the consequences of the majority of natural disasters. One of the most important functions of parks and gardens when disasters are to isolate one area is the potential for danger, thereby concentrating destructive activity and preventing the development of a chain of events. Parks and gardens can also be considered as an area of emergency, with the possibility of escaping, settling and taking refuge.
