Objective: Contemporary cities are complex systems shaped by social, economic, and environmental factors. Since each city comprises intricate subsystems, any disruption or lack of adaptability in one subsystem during crises can render the entire city highly vulnerable. Urban resilience strengthens urban sustainability and fosters sustainable solutions within the framework of sustainable development. It is a vital factor in achieving a desirable future by reinforcing sustainable urban systems.
Resilience is defined as the capacity to withstand and adapt to disruptions, surprises, and changes. This study focuses on the role of resilience dimensions in promoting urban sustainability against natural hazards.
District 8 of Tehran, which includes several old neighborhoods, is bounded by Resalat Highway to the north, District 4 and Sorkheh Hesar Forest Park to the east, Damavand Street to the south, and District 7 to the west. The irregular urban fabric, high proportion of old buildings, and various social, economic, and environmental challenges make urban resilience a critical issue for sustainability in this area.
Method: This applied study employs a descriptive-analytical approach. The statistical population consists of residents of Tehran’s District 8 (425,197 people). A sample of 383 individuals was selected through random sampling.
Data analysis was conducted using SPSS and AMOS software, utilizing the Pearson correlation coefficient, multiple regression, and structural equation modeling (SEM).
Results: The findings indicate a significant relationship between the dimensions of urban resilience and sustainable development. The social, economic, and institutional dimensions of resilience had correlation coefficients of 0.662, 0.551, and 0.472, respectively. Linear regression analysis showed that 57.5% of the variance in urban sustainability can be explained and predicted by these independent variables.
Conclusions: It can be concluded that emphasizing the social, economic, and institutional dimensions of resilience can positively and effectively guide cities toward urban sustainability. Therefore, enhancing the knowledge, awareness, and skills of residents regarding the concept of resilience and its role in sustainable development is critically important.
Keywords: Urban Resilience, Sustainable Development, Urban Sustainability, Natural Hazards, Tehran.
