| description | Human weakness and vulnerability to urban hazards are taken for granted. Human development has the tendency to move from villages towards the cities. In accident-prone countries, the consequences of crises are a major deterrent to development. The general effects of accidents include death and injury of individuals, damage to property, products, services, and infrastructure, and thus the impact on lifestyle and its social and psychological dimensions, from a doctrinal point of view, accidents, and disasters are part of the world of creation and divine test for awakening, and sometimes, the result of the actions and punishment of human sins and its occurrence causes the growth and excellence of human society. The disasters that have occurred in recent years indicate that societies and individuals have increasingly become vulnerable and that the risks have increased as well. About three-quarters of the world’s population lives in areas that in recent decades have experienced at least one of the four leading causes of death from crises: earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, or droughts have experienced. In recent years, the occurrence of accidents and the number of injured people and the financial losses caused by them have increased significantly. Therefore, the main purpose of this article is to try to explain the components and constructive characteristics of resilience and determine the share of factors affecting resilience in crisis management in Tehran’s 15th district. Also, the results show that there is a significant level of 0.000 between resilience and the final situation. At the level of p=0.01, then, this relationship is significant, the researcher’s hypothesis is confirmed with 99% confidence, and the null hypothesis will be rejected. The results show a linear relationship between the mentioned variable and social, economic, and physical resilience; that is, the results show that compliance with resilience indicators in natural disasters (earthquakes) can be effective in urban crisis managers. |
