Introduction
An inclusive city is defined as a place where all members of society, regardless of economic status, gender, race, ethnicity or religion, can fully participate in the social, economic and political opportunities that provided by cities. In fact, the inclusive city creates a wide network to involvement the poor, unemployed and unpaid people in urban investment projects and programs to improve their lives. According to available statistics, 30% of the population of Iran is currently facing the challenges of declining quality of urban life, and the most important of these challenges are: the spread of urban poverty, expansion of spatial-functional inequalities, inefficiency of urban mobility, identity crisis, degradation and erosion Socially, the low resilience of cities in the face of disasters and environmental degradation. In the meantime, the city of Tabriz is facing a major challenge in terms of the three basic dimensions of the inclusive city (spatial, social and economic inclusion); Because access to affordable infrastructure, land and housing (spatial dimension), the right to the city and participation in the urban management process (social dimension) and equal access to equal opportunities has become a major issue for urban development managers. The present study seeks to find a suitable answer to the following question.
- What are the effective factors in the inclusion of Tabriz metropolis?
Methodology
To identify the components and indicators of inclusive city, a pairwise comparison questionnaire was provided to 15 urban planning and management experts to identify the effective drivers in creating inclusive city and extract the key factors of inclusive development in Tabriz city. Structural analysis software (MICMAC) was used to analyze the research data. In this study, the effect of interrelated factors in the development of inclusive city has been studied and finally, the drivers of inclusive city development in city of Tabriz have been presented.
Results and discussion
Based on the studies, the key factors and drivers affecting the formation of an inclusive city in the metropolis of Tabriz are presented separately.
MicMac software also calculates the degree of matrix compatibility in both impact and effect modes. The higher the percentages, the greater the compatibility between the factors and the rationality of the relationship between the factors
After determining the factors by forming a matrix of interaction effects (researcher-made questionnaire by pairwise comparison with a range of 5, 0, 1, 2, 3, P) the extent of their impact and effectiveness on each other was determined by experts. Then, with the help of relevant software (MicMac), key factors are extracted. According to the numbers of the questionnaire, which is completed as a matrix, the software calculates their relationship and finally considers a numerical score for each factor. It ranks factors directly and indirectly based on impact and effectiveness. In this case, the factors that score the most points, their impact and effectiveness will change accordingly. Based on the definition and interpretation of variables in the MicMac diagram, the position and status of each factor in the future formation of the inclusive city in the metropolis of Tabriz was examined. The result is shown in the diagram below.
After determining the status of each of the factors, the relationships of these factors were examined in MicMac software that the relationships of key factors affecting the formation of an inclusive city in the metropolis of Tabriz are shown in five levels: ((Very weak to very strong relations, weak to very strong relations, relatively strong to very strong relations, strong to very strong relations, very strong relations)
The following diagram shows the degree of influence of each arrow to influence each other.
The variables that were selected as the key factors influencing the creation of an inclusive city are: (Sustainable Development, Affordable Housing, Governance, Economic Reconstruction, Employment, Transport Planning, Social Justice, Immigration, Opportunity Distribution)
