Abstract :

The present study was conducted to analyze the problems and provide effective solutions for conservation and preservation of urban green space in urmia city.

Using pilot test and calculating cronbach 's alpha , the reliability of the questionnaire was obtained . The population of the study consisted of 175 experts and activists of green space in uremia city. ~~~ based on cochran formula, the sample size was 128 people. Respondents were randomly selected and questionnaires were distributed among them. The results indicate that there is a positive and meaningful relation between economic, cultural - educational, social, environmental and managerial strategies with the advantage of conservation and conservation of urban green space in urmia city. Also, there was a negative and significant relationship between conservation and urban green space maintenance. To predict the changes in the dependent variable, conservation and conservation of urban green space by independent variables means economic, cultural - educational, social, environmental and managerial solutions were used. The multiple correlation coefficients show the intensity of the relationship between dependent variables and independent variables.
