Social networks, as one of the most significant components of the media in virtual space, are crucial for preserving social ties and the collective identity of society, particularly among younger generations. The amount of daily consumption of the presence of young people in these networks and the expansion and influence of these networks among the people have caused many changes in the behavior and mentality of the members of the society, and this research aims to examine the role of these networks in improving the social capital of Mazandaran province. The research was conducted using an exploratory qualitative applied research methodology. The researcher hopes to learn more about and clarify the function of networks and social media in the creation of social capital by conducting in-depth interviews.
