Abstract

Public participation and mutual inter- related activities of people and government are mostly considered in every economic, social and cultural development program. People participation can draw the centralization of government organizations in making the fundamental decisions and hand it to the local levels of society. Achieving the main objective and the conformity of development programs and the social needs can only be obtained through participation. Governmental programs mostly lack this process in the planning and construction of many projects and less attention is payed to people as a member in the process. This matter could be improved by considering the solutions given by the local people and associating them with designing goals to select the best related decision to the main objective. The current paper includes the renewal experiences in Nemat Abad urban decayed sector in the 19th district of Tehran during the years of 2009-2010 and the people participation the renovation and the reformation of the mentioned region. Hypothesis: considering public points of view and studying the solutions offered by people while categorizing the information thematically can lead to a reasonable and related solutions and suggestions based on the main goal.
