Understanding the key factors of success in the regeneration of urban peripheral settlements with emphasis on the final beneficiaries, Case of study: Chahardangeh City

Introduction
Urban renewal and regeneration in peri-urban settlements has not been given much attention in Iran for several decades. Policy-making in this field has focused on physical issues and some degree of emphasis on financing and economic profitability. However, in recent years, there has been an increasing emphasis on the social aspects of development. However, due to the complex role and function of responsible and relevant organizations, the relationships between organizations and economic and social structures, and the management challenges of urban development, many complications need to be addressed. A successful solution for regenerating worn-out tissues in peri-urban areas has not yet been implemented with a focus on key stakeholders. As a result, regeneration projects in these areas have not seen significant improvements and face challenges in becoming more efficient. These problems have accumulated over time and require attention. The approach of recreating these textures by emphasizing the participation of stakeholders through interaction strengthens the participation in the renovation of these textures and strengthens the participation in them. In this regard, this research tries to identify the key factors affecting the dilapidated structures of peri-urban settlements by using the regeneration approach and a qualitative method, emphasizing the final beneficiaries to improve the quality of life of the Worn-out these settlements, so this research has been conducted to answer this question: What are the key effective factors in the success of the structures of the peri-urban settlements of Chahardange with emphasis on the final beneficiaries? And which one has the most importance so that appropriate solutions can be provided by knowing these factors and checking their priority?
 
Methodology
This research has fundamental and applied purposes involving interpretive and analytical methods. The study employs qualitative and quantitative research approaches, the grounded theory method, and hybrid models (EDAS and FBMW) for data analysis. The statistical population for this research is divided into two parts. The first part includes the ultimate beneficiaries of regeneration, such as businesses and local communities. The sample size of 35 people was determined through purposeful sampling and continued until the results reached saturation. The second part of the sampled community consists of 15 individuals who are experts in the recreation field. They were identified through targeted sampling.
 
Results and discussion
Based on the qualitative section (grounded theory), the study identified five categories of capacity building, participatory action, populism, and avoidance of government in regeneration organizations, as well as a hard look at and development of a specific legal framework and awareness and knowledge of actors. The reconstruction plans were derived from the semantic units. Additionally, the EDAS model ranked the categories and found that the category of populism and avoidance of government-centered regeneration organizations had the highest priority with a final weight of 0.99. The hard view of law and the development of a specific legal framework had the lowest priority, with a weight value of 0.011. In the capacity building category, stakeholder participation weighted 0.089, while human power participation weighted 0.093 in the cooperative action category. In the category of populism and avoidance of government-centered regeneration organizations, decentralization had the highest rank with a weight value of 0.094. Lack of software view on the issue of regeneration had a weight value of 0.083 in the hard view of the law category and the formulation of a specific legal framework. The education of the beneficiaries had the highest rank and priority with a weight value of 0.085 in the category of awareness and knowledge of the participants of reconstruction projects, according to the results of the FBMW model.
 
Conclusion
In order to successfully regenerate the worn-out texture in the Chardagheh settlement, it is crucial to prioritize the needs of the final beneficiaries. By identifying the key factors that contribute to successful regeneration, a platform for participation can be created. This will strengthen the sense of belonging and responsibility within the group.
