Abstract

Nowadays, the citizen's security and the ways of promoting it have been considered as a priority of urban designer. Planning and design for safety in a city or a neighborhood may become a very complex exercise from the physical point of view.Cities and urban areas are places where different communities and groups of people attend in. With a great variety of social and cultural life styles and different attitudes, so that they have different demands and expectations from their spaces. The amount of using URBAN SPACEs indicates its suitability to serve the needs and inspirations of each group. Besides meeting the social needs, services and access for all users of space, URBAN SPACEs must deal with facilities and conditions to develop and infuse a sense of security in space. Urban planners try to identify security threat, especially in public and URBAN SPACEs, provide security for their users. Female due to differences in biological characteristics, responsibilities, and attitudes compared to men, establish a different relationship with the space. So, Special facilities are required to increase.The confidence of the spaces for their presence in URBAN SPACEs, especially public spaces such as parks, in this research relied on descriptive-analysis method has been studied in Tehran (Saei Park) on the purpose of promoting the security of women in URBAN SPACEs and the effective factors for security of women. One hundred questionnaires consist of multiple-choice questions and descriptive ones are prepared and distributed among the women in the park and the responses were analyzed by the SPSS software. First of all, an introduction of the studied field and basis theoretical of the research which consists of explanations, conceptions, and attitudes related to the topic is presented and afterwards an investigation of the factors affecting the safety of women in the studied field, a description of the research history (conducted similar researches) and a research approach are scrutinized. Finally, the outcomes and discoveries of the research due to increasing the women's security in urban areas are studied.The results of increasing women's security in URBAN SPACEs according to the results of the questionnaires about unsafe parts in SAIE PARK, shows that more than half of the park spaces, including the southern and eastern parts and a large area in the center of the park are insecure and women are less likely to use these parts. The reasons that women don't intend to use the insecure areas or use them less include: accessibility, readability, vegetation, social control, lighting and flooring. The result shows that women's high secure feeling in urban areas is not affected by personal characteristics, such as age, education level and employment status; and three effective factors including physical (lighting, access control, furniture, mixed land uses, access to quality, night life, green space and legibility), social (social justice space, security understanding of population and Social control) and social-physical (being familiar with the space and renowned space). Among these factors, social-physical factor is the most important reason to keep women safe in urban places.
