Abstract: (15 Views) |
Background and Aim: In recent decades, with the expansion of urbanization and increasing pressure on urban resources, challenges related to nutrition laws, quality of urban life and tourism sustainability have received more attention than ever before. In the meantime, newurbanism, as a new approach to designing and recreating urban spaces, with an emphasis on mixed use, pedestrianization, preservation of historical context and social participation, provides a suitable context for achieving sustainable development goals. This research, with the aim of examining the role of newurbanism principles in promoting nutritional security and nutrition laws in the context of urban tourism, focused its case study on the historical-central core of Tabriz.
Methods: In order to achieve the goals of this study, a research method based on a qualitative-quantitative approach was used using field observations, including questionnaires and interviews with residents, tourists and local experts within the historical market of Tabriz and the surrounding streets.
Ethical Considerations: This research was conducted in compliance with the principles of research ethics. Participants participated in the study with informed and voluntary consent and their information was used confidentially and without the possibility of individual identification. The cultural and social values of the central core of Tabriz were respected and the data were used solely within the framework of scientific goals and without conflict of interest.
Results: The data obtained show that the existence of open spaces, local markets and access to healthy food in the city center is an important factor in increasing tourist satisfaction and ensuring nutritional justice for residents. On the other hand, the lack of some public infrastructure and urban services, such as rest areas, drinking water and sanitation, is an obstacle to the full realization of the goals of neo-urbanism and urban nutrition.
Conclusion: The present article attempts to provide an integrated model for urban policymaking in the areas of nutrition, tourism and urban design. The findings of this research can be considered as a basis for formulating urban policies based on food rights, strengthening local markets and designing public spaces with a focus on tourists and local residents. |
