The paper explores the outcomes of Russian Federation G20 Presidency in 2013. The analysis is based on the model of balancing external conditions and national priorities for developing an agenda in informal institutions (supply-demand model). This analytical paradigm allows to reveal to what extent the Presidency has managed to ensure: 1) a high level of response to the key global governance challenges in the agenda and summit decisions; 2) a balance between national and other members’ interests in the Presidency priorities; 3) utilizing the institution’s capabilities; 4) conformity of the role chosen by the Presidency (organizer, mediator, political leader, national representative) to the combination of external and internal conditions.Russia took over the responsibility for coordinating the G20 work from Mexico, accepting the rotating presidency of this premier forum for economic cooperation on December 1, 2012. The G20 met the fifth year of its work under conditions of a two speed recovery which by March 2013 transformed into a three speed recovery. Unsteady and sluggish growth, persisting imbalances and downside global economy risks demanded that this forum of the world largest economies concentrate the efforts on developing a set of measures aimed at boosting sustainable, inclusive and balanced growth and jobs creation around the world. These priorities constituted the core of the Russian G20 presidency concept, aimed at ensuring sustainable global growth and rebuilding of trust between the world economy different agents in accordance with the G20 mission and capability.Consolidating efforts on its core economic and financial priorities, the G20 also launched collaboration to overcome such risks as increasing income disparities, chronic underinvestment into development of safe, secure and modern infrastructure, unforeseen consequences of regulation.The analysis findings reveal that the Russian presidency managed to ensure a good balance of national interests and the partners’ priorities in the G20 agenda; utilizing the G20 capabilities to respond to the key global governance challenges. The choice of the presidency role depended on the nature of the issues and was defined by a combination of internal and external conditions. Thus, the acuteness of the problem for all summit participants determined demand for leadership in including into the economic forum agenda the debate on a peaceful resolution of the conflict in Syria. On employment and social policies the Russian presidency combining the roles of an organizer and a political leader helped upgrade the G20 dialogue to a new quality level.A major success factor in deliberation and adoption of the comprehensive action plan on base erosion and profit shifting was the OECD capability to take responsibility for the plan development. With the OECD leadership, solid experts’ foundation, and a high level of relevance of the problem for all members, the presidency supported the process as the organizer.On the topic of stimulating long-term investment, a priority for Russia as well as most of the G20 partners, the presidency managed to consolidate the efforts of several international institutions over a short period. On this priority, as well as on the financial regulation reform, the presidency acted as a representative of the national interests and an organizer. In developing the new development strategy the choice in favor of a combination of a mediator and an organizer proved most productive. As a result the G20 agreed a new cooperation for development outlook.The presidency active collaboration with the international organizations and engagement with social partners was instrumental in harnessing their experts’ potential and enhancing the G20 transparency, legitimacy and effectiveness. The G20 institutions consolidation continued through development of new coordination mechanisms and strengthening accountability.Under the Russian presidency the G20 reaffirmed its value as the premier economic cooperation forum. Emphasizing restoring strong and inclusive growth and employment while ensuring fiscal sustainability, the leaders for the first time in the history of the G20 stressed that the well-being of individual people should be at the center of the growth agenda. This consequential outcome of the five years collaboration might be a start of a new G20 agenda where inclusiveness is one of the pillars of growth.The research was carried out with financial support of Russian Humanities Research Foundation within the framework of a research project Elaborating a Supply – Demand Model to Balance External Demand and National Priorities in the Presidency Proposals for Agenda in G20, G8 and BRICS, project №12-03-00563.

As part of its Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), China is increasingly investing abroad and has become an important country for development financing. Many commentators have expressed concern that the country is defying the Western path of sustainable development guided by the rule of law and good governance standards. Yet, studies of the real existing articulation of the BRI are lacking. Through a comparative case study of Chinese loans for infrastructure in East Africa (the Standard Gauge Railroad in Kenya and the Ethiopia-Djibouti railroad), this article offers a consolidated and more systematic assessment of what kind of governance China is in fact practicing through the BRI and the reasons behind what I argue to be its ‘adaptive governance’ approach. Specifically, it examines the attitude of Chinese state-owned enterprises (SOEs) toward corporate social responsibility (CRS) in light of the regulatory frameworks of the Chinese central government and host governments. Through a combination of document analysis and in-depth interviews with relevant stakeholders, this paper compares the railroads China has financed and built in Kenya and Ethiopia as part of the BRI with a focus on CRS and their economic, social, and environmental impacts. It argues that the reason for the differing CRS in the two case studies is that China is not forcing upon host countries any specific type of governance, because its approach is above all adaptive and conforms with its core principles of sovereignty and non-interference. Such an approach, however, has generated several negative externalities that may reinforce poor governance standards and ultimately undermine the sustainability and developmental outcomes of the BRI. By looking at concrete cases from the ground, this article sheds new light on China’s emerging development paradigm along the BRI and addresses some of the concerns related to China’s rise as a great power.

<ns4:p>Water, energy and food (WEF) security are key indicators of sustainable development. Realization of sustainable development goals (SDGs) by countries is achieved through a water-energy-food-ecosystem nexus framework. Climate change is a threat to food, energy and water security in the Horn of Africa. The main aim of this review is to assess the status and prospects of WEF nexus as it relates to SDGs in the horn of Africa. The countries considered were Ethiopia, Eritrea, Somalia and Djibouti. The review indicated that the four countries have a challenge in achieving SDGs 2, 6 and 7. Djibouti had the highest (50.9) WEF index in the region followed by Ethiopia and Somalia at 47.5 and 36.8, respectively while Eritrea had the lowest WEF index of 35.8. The energy sub-index was the best performer in the region with an average index of 56 while water and food sub-indices were the worst at 36. Political instability, insecurity, inadequate infrastructure, weak institutional and legal framework are some of the challenges facing WEF and sustainable development in the region. Climate change adaptation measures should be incorporated into the water, energy, food and ecosystem (WEFE) nexus using an integrated approach. Modelling WEFE requires integration of models and should also focus on interactions among the sub-systems.</ns4:p>

The issues of forced displacement and energy for sustainable development are convergent: an estimated 90% of displaced people globally have no access to electricity, while 85% of refugees are hosted in developing countries. However, few tools to plan and design sustainable energy access interventions have been transposed to displacement settings. This paper presents a novel framework for the holistic planning of energy projects which considers both sustainability aspects and the specificities of displacement settings. The framework is the result of a review of literature which aimed to define a “sustainable energy intervention” in displacement contexts and an assessment of relevant planning tools against this definition. The framework includes the use of an energy delivery model toolkit, an inclusive design approach, an assessment of the desired impacts, energy system modelling, business model design, and an assessment of economic viability. We apply the framework in the design of a solar mini grid of Holl Holl refugee camp in Djibouti, in which a sustainable intervention and business model are proposed that could be compatible with the local conditions. We highlight issues that arise from the humanitarian sector status quo and propose that this framework could help to enhance sustainable energy practices in the humanitarian and development sectors.

Abstract During the process of design and construction of water management facilities and structures, such as reservoirs, dams, spillways, water intakes, etc., it is important to pay attention to the specific conditions of a particular country. Since the rapprochement among Eritrea, Ethiopia and Djibouti in 2018, the geopolitical dynamics of the region has changed to a different level. These regional changes will significantly contribute to the development of extractive and processing industries, agriculture, trade, construction and tourism in Eritrea. However, all these developments unquestionably require sustainable and efficient water use, intensive development of water management and water technologies, among others. Based on the specific conditions of Eritrea, identification of existing main trends in the design and construction of water management facilities and structures followed by formulation of practical recommendations and future directions has been the focus of this study. Reliable and relevant information has been processed and analysed using general scientific research methods, including generalization and analysis, synthesis and analogy, historical and hypothetical methods of cognition. This paper comprehended that the design, construction and operation of water management structures should consider the predominantly hot climatic condition of the country, while observing the main development trends in the field. These activities help in ensuring reliable and trouble-free operation of hydraulic structures, using modern and progressive achievements of hydraulic engineering science and global practice in the field of dam engineering and construction of culverts taking into account environmental requirements and norms, and using modern high-performance mechanisms and methods of production of hydraulic works. Moreover, the hydrological and water management conditions of Eritrea are characterized by limited water resources, poor knowledge of water bodies, and lack of reliable hydrological, meteorological and geological information. Under these circumstances, it would be necessary to use mathematical modelling for understanding and forecasting hydrological processes in river basins.

This study was conducted to determine the strategies and ethics of sustainability in agriculture and food systems in Iran. To represent the points of view of 57 agricultural stockholders, including an ago-ecologist specialist, agricultural extension and development experts, farmers, and the Iranian Scientific Society of Agroecology (ISSA) members, the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) was employed. A hierarchical network was developed at two levels for selection from among the three ethical approaches, which were developed based on the general tenets of utilitarian, rights, and virtue models. The findings indicated that criteria, i.e. resilience of agricultural systems, supportive policies and self-reliance, and equity, are the most important criteria for sustainable agriculture (SA) in Iran. A sensitivity analysis was carried out to determine the critical factors affecting the priority of alternatives. The results indicated that virtue, rights, and utilitarian models have successive levels of priority as the theoretical base of sustainable agricultural development in Iran. Finally, we outline two strategies for developing a macroethics approach: informational strategies to consider the priorities of virtue model, and structural strategies to highlight the reinforcing nature of right model and utilitarian model.

Iran is rich in energy resources and oil has dominated the politico-socio-economic life of this country, but nevertheless Iran has no documented policy and vision for its massive resources. This poses a major challenge to policy makers and the society. It is necessary to have a clear picture of Iran׳s energy status in recent years showing the flow of energy supply, demand, consumption, import and export to know how the energy situation in Iran is and identify its weaknesses and strengths. This paper is the first step in that direction and presents an overview of Iran energy situation and the potential and current state of renewable energy application. The status of energy in Iran is compared to world’s energy status via five key factors, and finally this comparison shows hints for designing roadmap of energy for Iran to attain sustainable and secure energy in long term. The novel contribution of this work is the STEEP analysis of Iran energy situation for designing the long-term supporting mechanisms for sustainable and secure energy for Iran based on Social (S), Technological (T), Economical (E), Environmental (E) and Political (P) criteria.

Supplier selection as a multi-criteria decision-making problem that highly depends on the decision makers’ vision has a major issue among supply chain (SC) managers. SC sustainability, which pays attention to the environmental, economic, and social aspects in SC, has been recently highlighted in the evaluation process undergone by the SC managers. Suppliers, as the basic components of the SC, play a significant role in creating a sustainable SC. Hence, the first aim of this research is to determine the weights of sustainability criteria by using analytical hierarchy process. The second aim of this study is to evaluate suppliers based on four main criteria, CO2 emissions, the number of employees in the suppliers’ country industry, water consumption and distance from supplier's country to the destination at three SC levels and the macroeconomic (international) level. In order to address the second goal of this research, the Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) method as a multi-criteria decision-making method has been applied. In this research, Iran's steel industry has been selected as the case study. Results show that the Iranian mining industry is the best sustainable supplier for Iran's steel industry. In addition, Iran was found as the best sustainable supplier country for most suppliers in Iran's steel industry SC based on the three SC sustainability criteria at three levels. Finally, a sensitivity analysis has been applied according to the different weights of the sustainability criteria. The results of this research can help managers in the steel industry to deal with the supplier selection problem at the macro-level. Furthermore, the presented approach in this research can assist managers of other industries to select and evaluate their suppliers.

Iran's energy system is extremely dependent on fossil fuels which, in turn, have led to problems such as fossil fuels depletion, social, economic and environmental damage and territorial imbalance. The country should therefore design a sustainable energy system based on clean energy a s well as renewable energy. Accordingly, and given that Iran's rural areas suffer from the unsustainable energy system, it is necessary to integrate renewable energy into comprehensive development programs in general, and into rural development programs, specifically. This review paper answers the following questions: Why is renewable energy important for Iran at national and rural levels? How is renewable energy related to sustainable rural development? and What are the challenges in the promotion of renewable energy technologies in Iran? The paper concludes that although renewable energy has potential for development in Iran's rural areas due to environmental, social and economic advantages, it could face some infrastructural, managerial, socio-cultural and economic challenges. Accordingly, aggressive and innovative policy making is required to meet these challenges.

Global warming, environmental issues, food crisis and energy security are the main concerning problems which have triggered a sense of urgency among policymakers and development practitioners to find sustainable and viable solutions in the area of bioenergy. Among various edible and non-edible bioenergy feedstocks specified for biodiesel production, Jatropha curcas L. (JCL) and waste cooking oil (WCO) have been introduced to be promising and sustainable. In this study, an integrated hybrid approach based on a data envelopment analysis (DEA) and mathematical programming techniques is presented for the strategic design of biodiesel supply chain network in Iran. In the first phase, JCL cultivation areas are assessed according to climatic and social criteria by a unified DEA (UDEA) model. In the second phase, the locations which have achieved desired efficiency scores are considered as candidate locations for JCL cultivation within a mathematical programming model developed for designing the biodiesel supply chain network. The proposed mathematical programming model optimizes the numbers, locations and capacities of JCL cultivation centers, JCL seeds and WCO collection centers, bio-refineries, and distribution centers. The proposed approach is implemented in Iran for 10 years planning horizon. The results show the usefulness and efficiency of the proposed method in assisting the policymakers to take suitable strategic and tactical level decisions related to biodiesel supply chain planning.

Sustainable development that conceptually can be divided into the following parts: environmental, social and economic, is a pattern of resource use, which aims to meet human needs while preserving the environment so that these needs can be met not only in the present, but also for generations to come in future. This paper is a comparative study on the socio-environmental sustainability in traditional courtyard houses in Iran and China, as two of the ancient civilizations in the world. The aim is to investigate the potential of traditional courtyard houses in responding to environmental challenges alongside social norms over a long period of time. To achieve this purpose, social and environmental dimensions of the sustainability as well as the main elements of traditional courtyard houses in Iran and China are identified. Then, the way these elements have contributed to the social and environmental sustainability of heritage settlements are described, analyzed, and compared through library and field survey studies. Results of this research show that Iranian and Chinese traditional courtyard houses were designed based on a careful attention to climatic requirements in their socio-cultural context, in order to provide both physical and mental comforts for residents. As conclusion, some socio-environmental design principles are extracted, as lessons learned from the past, which can be considered in designing of contemporary sustainable residential buildings in Iran and China. These design patterns, can be generalized to all cases with similar climatic conditions, in order to save more energy as well as enhancing social values in mentioned areas.

Because of disadvantages of fossil fuels, renewable energy sources are getting importance for sustainable energy development and environmental protection. Among the renewable sources, Iran has geothermal energy potential. The Iranian government is considerable attention to the utilization of renewable energy, especially wind, solar and geothermal energies. Due to recent advancements in geothermal energy, many investors in the country have become interested in investing in this type of energy. Geothermal studies in Iran started in 1975 with a cooperative between the ministry of Energy of Iran and ENEL Company from Italy. Preliminary studies indicated potential for geothermal power generation in four areas in northern Iran (Khoy-Maku, Sabalan, Sahand and Damavand at Azarbaijan Gharbi, Ardebil, Azarbaijan Sharghi and Tehran provinces), respectively. Geothermal development in Iran has gained momentum in the last five years with increased exploration and industry growth in the country. Iran is developing a geothermal plant for power production. Iran government plans to build 2000 MW of renewable energy capacity over the next five years. Total projected use (geothermal capacity) has been estimated 100 MW at the end of 2010. Exploration drilling is currently in-progress for Meshkinshahr project in North-Western Iran. The Sabalan geothermal power plant is expected to produce 50 MW electric powers in 2011. The plants are planned by Iran Ministry of Energy and the Renewable Energy Organization of Iran (SUNA). This study presents a brief introduction to the resource, status and prospect of geothermal energy in Iran.

This study is aimed at developing the most important and applicable criteria and their corresponding sub-criteria for sustainable supplier selection through a questionnaire-based survey. In addition, a hybrid model is proposed to identify the most sustainable supplier with respect to the determined attributes using an Iranian textile manufacturing company as case study. The first contribution of the research is developing a comprehensive list of sustainability criteria and sub-criteria and incorporating them into a questionnaire and distributing the questionnaire to academics and practitioners for establishing the importance and applicability of these criteria and sub-criteria. In order to demonstrate the robustness of the data obtained from the questionnaire, different established statistical tests (Cronbach’s alpha and Mann-Withney U-Test) were applied. The results show that economic aspect is still the most essential aspect, followed by environmental aspect and finally social aspect. The second contribution is the development of a new hybrid model by integrating fuzzy preference programing, as one of the newest and most accurate fuzzy modification of Analytical Hierarchy Process, with Fuzzy Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution. Fuzzy Preference Programming overcomes the shortcomings of the previous methods for obtaining the weight and Fuzzy Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution prioritizes the suppliers and finds the best one under uncertainty. Generally, the developed list provides a basis that is helpful in improving suppliers’ performance in terms of sustainability which leads to improvement in sustainable supply chain management performance. In addition, the developed hybrid model can deal with inconsistency, uncertainty and calculation complexity. Generally, the framework (including the first and second objectives) can be applied by managers to evaluate and determine their appropriate suppliers in the presence of uncertainty.

This study develops an integrated model of the main contextual factors that affect sustainable delivery of megaprojects in Iran. The inputs to the model are based on a comprehensive literature review affecting the “triple bottom line” of sustainability, as measured in economic, environmental, and social costs. Innovation diffusion theory and extralogical laws of imitation inform the theoretical points of departure. The model inputs were customized for the context of Iran, and a structural equation model was developed, using data collected from 101 survey questionnaires. The findings identify a wide range of factors that directly impact megaproject sustainability, and these may be used by policymakers and practitioners within the Iranian construction industry to better manage sustainability outcomes. Principally, megaprojects would benefit from (1) the generation of sustainability awareness at the evaluation phase, (2) tackling corruption at the preparation phase, and (3) consolidating responsible project management practices at the usage phase. Moreover, these lessons may be more broadly applicable across the entire construction supply chain in Iran, as well as being transferable to other developing countries.

The purpose of this paper is to underscore the necessity for implementing a cleaner production strategy in order to achieve sustainable development for Iran's industries. While reviewing the reasons for the need to adopt the strategy of cleaner production for the industries of developing countries, the special features of Iranian society which makes the use of cleaner production necessary were also studied. It is important to develop a model or method for developing a priority for industrialists to work with in initiating cleaner production activities. This was done in Iran using the “multiple criteria decision making method” (MCDM). This included, among other things, interviewing the relevant experts and directors, for each industrial group. A relative ranking score was developed and based upon it, the priority of each group was determined. Within this process, the industrial groups of “textiles, apparel and leather industries” were given the highest priority and the industrial group of “manufacture of wood and wood products, including furniture” were given the lowest priority.

This paper discusses issues of sustainability and rural tourism within the context of Iran. Using a qualitative research approach, it investigates the experiences of one particular village which is already popular with visitors and has featured in official tourism development plans. The focus is on the reactions of residents and their perceptions of tourism impacts and formal policies. Findings indicate that villagers are concerned about the use of local natural and cultural resources for tourism purposes, recognising negative consequences which seem to them to outweigh positive effects. Participation has been very limited in government rural tourism initiatives which are felt to yield few benefits for village inhabitants. Current policies thus appear ineffective and reforms are necessary if the potential for sustainable rural tourism, embracing community engagement, is to be realised.

Qanats are a traditional source of water management that exists throughout much of the Middle East, and extending into North Africa, Spain and South Asia. In particular, they have played an important role in managing the supply of water throughout Iran for over two millennia in what is an arguably a sustainable manner. With water scarcity playing a prominent role in the modern world, qanats offer a practical, low cost solution to these issues. This paper looks at the early development of qanats in Iran, the important role they played in revolutionising the settlement systems and sustainability of communities in the past, and how they are now being reinvigorated to provide sustainable water in the present in Iran and other countries.

Circular supplier selection is the process of selecting suppliers in a closed-loop supply chain. Sustainable circular supplier selection addresses the social and environmental concerns in circular supplier selection problems. In this paper, for the first time, we combine the fuzzy best-worst method and the interval VIKOR technique to evaluate and prioritize sustainable suppliers in circular supply chains. The evaluation criteria are classified into three categories of economic, social, and circular factors extracted based on the domain expert's opinions. The fuzzy best-worst method is used to weigh the criteria, and the interval VIKOR technique is applied to evaluate the suppliers in the presence of uncertainty. This study contributes to the sustainable development goals (SDG's) of providing Decent Work and Economic Growth (SDG 8) and Responsible Consumption and Production (SDG 12). The proposed method is then used to evaluate six suppliers in the wire-and-cable industry in Iran. The results obtained from the implementation of the proposed approach and its sensitivity analysis indicate the applicability and efficiency of the proposed approach.

Sustainable development is a new concept with various perspectives in communities. Cities and rural areas are in the core of attention for developing. This study focuses on rural areas. Stability of building structures is so important in villages and rural areas. One sustainable development criterion of villagers is suitable housing. In this research, both new and traditional technologies are investigated for developing rural areas. The most part of Iran is in desert areas. This research investigates these areas in Iran as a case study. Two MCDM methods is applied as a new hybrid model in this research, at first SWARA is applied for weighting criteria and then COPRAS is applied for evaluating five selected building structures in term of these regions climate. Authors propose that this research can be useful as a framework for using in other regions in all around the world.

Uncertain climate changes and increasing energy and food production demands lead to food insecurity, especially for drought-prone areas like the study region, Iran. This study assesses the energy use, economic, and environmental impacts of two different healing and acclimatization systems, the conventional tunnel systems (CTS) and the LED-equipped vertical systems (LVS), for grafted watermelon seedlings in Iran. Life cycle assessment (LCA), cumulative exergy demand (CExD), and life cycle cost analysis (LCCA) approaches are used to assess the impacts of grafted watermelon seedlings. The functional unit is one million grafted watermelon seedlings (MGWS). The top findings of this study indicate that CTS increases energy consumption, damage to human health, ecosystems, and resources compared with the LVS. Further, the economic analysis revealed that the net profit in the multi-floored LVS is 24% higher than that of the CTS. In conclusion, LVS is less energy consumptive and environmentally burdensome yet more profitable than the CTS. Notably, the finding from this study supports recommendations that will be useful for industries or producers who need to develop sustainable grafted watermelon or vegetable production systems in Iran or similar regions. Top recommendations include using organic fertilizers, multi-floor LVS, and most importantly, replacing CTS with LVS to promote a sustainable agricultural production system.

The purpose of this study is to review the energy production trend from different energy resources in recent decades and its effect on sustainable energy production as one of the basic axis of sustainable development in Iran. Ninety nine percent of energy production in Iran comes from oil & gas and only 1% from renewable energy resources. Since Iran has very rich fossil energy resources, little attention has been paid to explore alternative ways of energy production. Majority of country's income is from oil & gas which put extra pressure on its natural resources. Continuing with the existing trend may lead to a path away from the goals of sustainable development, set for the country. Therefore, the sustainability study should be of interest to decision-makers.

Green human resource management is considered a critical tool in achieving sustainable behavior in an organization. This study aims to examine the influence of GHRM on employees' green behaviors via the mediating roles of corporate social responsibility and green psychological climate. This study utilized Partial Least Square Structural Equation Modelling to test the proposed model using a sample of 384 human resource managers and employees selected randomly from the industrial companies in all provinces of Iran. Our findings revealed that green human resource management practices influence companies' social responsibility, green psychological climate, and employees' green behaviors. In addition, corporate social responsibility and a green psychological climate promote green behaviors amongst the employees. Therefore, green human resource management influences employees’ green behavior directly and indirectly via the mediating roles of corporate social responsibility and green psychological climate within Iranian industries. The study outcomes confirm the significance of incorporating sustainability measures into the human resource management system as well as the important role of human resource management on environmental sustainability for the attainment of long-term sustainability in industrial development. The findings of our study are especially relevant to industrial companies in all countries, as it encourages them to engage in more sustainable practices such as lowering resource consumption.

Today, an increase in the drought and water shortage all around the world is a challengeable threat for different governments and international committees. Water supply chain aims to manage the water consumption and to control the water shortage. Contrary to most of previous studies focused on the forward directions of the water supply chain, this paper also considers the reverse logistics known as a Closed-Loop Supply Chain (CLSC). Hence, an integrated Water Supply and Wastewater Collection System (WSWCS) under uncertainty is proposed. Furthermore, regarding the trend of sustainable development, the environmental dimensions and social benefits of the integrated WSWCS are contributed. To meet the standards of the sustainable development in developing countries, a case study in Iran is applied to a novel multi-objective stochastic optimization model based on triple bottom lines of sustainability. Having already been employed to similar optimization problems, the Social Engineering Optimizer (SEO) has been never applied in this research area. Another innovation of this study is to introduce an improved multi-objective SEO to solve this complicated model. Eventually, with regards to an extensive comparison contributing to the Pareto-based metrics and different sensitivities, some managerial implications are concluded as the main findings.

Nations have developed their plans for sustainable development, including social, environmental, and economic aspects. Internet of things (IoT) has been introduced as the next wave of innovation. However, there is still little evidence of progressing IoT in developing countries. Therefore, making policies for investors and tech-entrepreneurs are much needed. Iran, as a transition economy, follows its 1404 economic outlook and should prioritise industries for using IoT. Thus, the aim of this study is to prioritise these industries. In the Iran Telecommunication Research Center and by using the multiple attribute decision making (MADM), criteria weight and prioritising the industries were obtained and each aspect of 'sustainable IoT', obtained and for this aim and to prioritise the industries the analytic hierarchy process (AHP), technique for order of preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) and ELimination Et Choix Traduisant la REalité e (ELECTRE) methods applied. The result is, respectively, healthcare, energy, smart home, transportation and retailing. The research sheds light on how policy makers can implement policies to use the IoT for achieving sustainable development.

Energy is a main factor for sustainable and economic development of many countries in the world. The objective of this paper is to investigate barriers facing solar energy development in Iran through a case study conducted on the Alborz Province. A questionnaire was designed and then submitted to the professionals in the field of solar energy. First, the identified barriers are classified into five categories of technical, legal, economic, sociocultural, and support by help of experts. Then, the fuzzy Best-Worst method is used to determine importance of the identified criteria and sub-criteria for development of the solar energy sector in the region. The findings indicate that the primary barriers to solar energy development are economic factors which are related to the adverse impact of the uncertain economic conditions including the sanctions against Iran. Because of the high risk of new business, domestic people do not have enough ambition and interest in starting new renewable energy projects. The low price of fossil fuels (in the economic category as sub-criteria), has the most significant impact on the stagnation of this sector, which is related to the ease of access to energy in Iran and its effect on the interest in renewable energy use. Supporting the private sectors by receiving financial incentives can help development of the renewable energy sector in the province. By using similar research for other regions, decision makers can accurately identify challenges for development of solar energy.

Sustainable development is a balance between economic growth, environmental issues and social conditions. In this respect, urban sustainable development is an important challenge, and a considerable part of sustainable development. Therefore, this study was carried out to assess and predict urban sustainability in different areas of Kermanshah city of Iran using an integrated approach, including the improved full permutation polygon synthetic indicator (IFPPSI) and Shannon's entropy methods. Kermanshah is the largest city located in the west of Iran with six main urban areas, which is facing many environmental, economic and social problems. The results showed that among the six urban areas, Areas 1, 3 and 4 have been shown to be at a moderate level, based on the synthetic indicator value (0.25–0.5). According to the synthetic indicator value (< 0.25), the levels of the other areas (2, 5 and 6) are quite bad. The IFPPSI results were also compared with common multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) techniques, ELECTRE of the concordance subgroup, TOPSIS of the compromising subgroup and SAW of the scoring subgroup. The results of the Friedman test showed that there is no significant difference between the MCDM and IFPPSI methods; however, the IFPPSI method is preferred due to its remarkable advantages over the other methods. In a subsequent part, based on the data collected from three time periods, the years 1996, 2006 and 2016, the indicator anticipated for 2026 showing no improvement in the environmental, economic and social indexes compared with the current conditions.

Based on the scores and trends of Sustainable Development Goals, Iran, our case study, has been unsuccessful in nearly all the pillars of sustainable development despite the variations in socioeconomic variables related to the SDGs. This implies a comprehensive underdevelopment in Iran, necessitating the improvement of infrastructure which significantly affects all the pillars of sustainable development including environment, health, and economy. This study, takes transportation as an important infrastructure which has various direct and indirect impacts on all pillars of sustainable development, especially in the case study of Iran. To evaluate this, the present study aims to investigate 1) which sustainability perspective dominates in Iran (strong sustainability, weak sustainability, or health-centered sustainability); and 2) the consistency degree of each transportation mode with each pillar of sustainability including environment, health, and economy. We employ VAR and simultaneous equations system to find which perspective of sustainable development dominates Iran; and to rank the transportations modes in accordance with their consistency with sustainable development in Iran during 1979–2016. Overall, the results of this study is found to be significant and support the strong sustainability perspective in Iran. The most compliant transportation modes with the sustainable development in Iran are then ranked as: a) rail, b) air, c) road, and d) maritime transportation. These results suggest the policy-makers to: 1) value the environmental issues at the top of the agenda for the sustainability strategies; and 2) to shift the load of passenger and goods to the rail transportation by investing and developing the rail network.

This paper presents the results of research carried out to improve emergency response activities in earthquake‐prone areas of Iran. The research concentrated on emergency response operations, emergency medical care, emergency transportation, and evacuation—the most important issues after an earthquake with regard to saving the lives of victims. For each topic, some guidelines and criteria are presented for enhancing emergency response activities, based on evaluations of experience of strong earthquakes that have occurred over the past two decades in Iran, notably Manjil (1990), Bam (2003), Firouz Abad‐Kojour (2004), Zarand (2005) and Broujerd (2006). These guidelines and criteria are applicable to other national contexts, especially countries with similar seismic and social conditions as Iran. The results of this study should be incorporated into comprehensive plans to ensure sustainable development or reconstruction of cities as well as to augment the efficiency of emergency response after an earthquake.

Energy crisis, environmental degradation, urbanization, industrialization, and climate change pose serious challenges to sustainable development. The expansion of green buildings (GBs) is regarded both as an effective method for energy consumption and an important strategy in the construction industry. However, in Iran due to lack of knowledge and awareness, uncertainty, and permission-related problems, GBs have failed to attract the attention of developers and purchasers. Therefore, identifying the factors that influence the adoption of GBs in the Iranian setting is still unknown and needs a critical examination. To fill this gap, the present study expands the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) by adding five factors (including social influence, subjective knowledge, environmental attitude, perceived cost, and trust in responsible organizations) and examining their impacts on building experts’ adoption of GBTs. The sample of the study included 301 GB experts in Tehran City, Iran. Sixteen hypotheses were proposed and tested applying the partial least squares path modeling (PLS) approach. The results indicate subjective knowledge was only a good predictor of intention and did not exercise an influence on attitude and perceived usefulness. Social trust, attitude, and perceived cost also predicted intention. Perceived usefulness was a good predictor of both attitude and intention. Perceived ease of use was a good predictor of perceived usefulness and attitude. The results of this study provide key insights into promoting GBTs, as an effective pro-environmental behavior, in developing countries.

Builders from the Western part of Asia are trained to make buildings that can fulfil certain required functions while giving full consideration to all sites and environmental conditions. The research covers the zone between Iraq and Iran. The first investigated region is the “Mesopotamian Marshes” or Iraqi-Iran Marshes, a wetland zone situated in southern Iraq and partially in southwestern Iran. The other region is a desert district, which includes a prominent part of the southern and western parts of Iraq and part of Iran. The last is the centre city of Basra. The building materials were the most important building element that affected the conformation of vernacular habitats from the western part of Asia in general and the Iraq–Iran area in particular. In this study, we needed to focus on the effects of ecological and energy-efficiency processes in creating vernacular habitats and the selection of optimal building systems and materials in this part of the world, which can be an essential point for sustainable environmental building processes in the future. Reeds, clay, straw, bricks, and wood were the most popular building materials used by builders from this region. The impact of building material on the environment embodies the essential method implicitly significant in this research to effectively determine traditional building materials in the environment, in addition to comparative analysis. This presents an essential factor of our analysis, in addition to the impact of environments on building systems. The main target of this study is to benefit designers and building engineers in their pursuit to find optimal and competent solutions suitable for specific local microclimates using traditional methods in the design process that are sustainable and ecological.

Abstract Current discourse on the transition to a decarbonized energy system future is dominated by renewable energy solutions. Initial conditions for this transition may vary across different regions and countries. There are, however, also opportunities for innovative solutions that utilize other low‐carbon energy sources and technology mix. Sustainable development is a contested concept and varies with priorities attached to social, economic, and environmental goals. Therefore, the one‐size‐fits‐all type of solution paradigm needs to be broadened, to accelerate action in the short to medium term. Our argument is that natural gas can be an important complementary transition fuel to support renewable energy in the short‐ and medium‐term transition phases. This means that the goal of zero fossil fuel as a short‐ and medium‐term solution needs to be reconsidered. This takes us to the next argument that innovation and upgraded technology in the low‐carbon fossil fuel sector will provide an important impetus for low‐carbon transition, which we see as a phase lasting until the middle of the century. However, the transition toward a sustainable energy future of gas‐fueled solutions has challenges from the social, technical, economic, geographical, and political points of view. Suitable local solutions should, however, also be assessed. These should take into consideration infrastructure, local demands, resources, and economic aspects as well as national energy policies. An analysis based on the experiences of four countries, both developed and developing, is presented in this study. The countries selected for this study can be placed in two categories: those with an abundance of natural gas reserves (Iran and Norway) and those that are import‐dependent (India and UK). The cross‐country analysis will help us to understand the realistic challenges and opportunities of natural gas as a transition fuel.

Evaluating the current situation of ecotourism in Kaji Namakzar Wetland in South Khorasan Province, Iran and offering strategies for its sustainable development are the main objectives of this study. To this end, different decision making tools were used including questionnaires and interviews with experts, local residents and visitors of the wetland. Strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats (SWOT) and quantitative strategic planning matrix (QSPM) analysis techniques were conducted to identify the required management strategies. Results showed that the existing ecotourism activities within the wetland are not in line with the sustainability requirements. Although the result of the present study showed that KNW has an unsustainable situation with regard to its current management strategies, if authorities take its great opportunities and strengths more into consideration, it can have positive effects on developing sustainable strategies to increase ecotourism activities in the region and to reduce the adverse effects on the environment.

Although the agricultural sector is an important source of bioenergy production, this production can be considered sustainable when energy consumed and environmental emissions are optimal. As such, the assessment of energy flow, environmental emissions of walnut orchards in Alborz province of Iran and their simultaneous optimization by multi-objective imperialist competitive algorithm are the main goals of this investigation. Input-output energy analysis, IMPACT 2002+ method of life cycle assessment, and multi-objective imperialist competitive algorithm are used in the energy-environmental evaluation for optimization in this study. Results ascertain that energy uses of the entire output and input are computed to be 31,015 and 27200 MJ ha−1, respectively and that gasoline with 40% is the dominated consumer of energy. Moreover, energy use efficiency is 0.88, which indicates energy inefficiency in walnut production. Environmental results shows that On-Orchard emissions with a share more than 50% in ecosystem quality, human health, and climate changes and gasoline in resources category are the main hotspots. Multi-objective optimization illustrates that the reduction in total energy is 19316 MJ ha−1 (about 62%) and gasoline with 58% is the most energy saving input among all. On the other hand, the total weighted emission decreases by about 1.47Pt (about 40%). Generally, results reveal that timely maintenance can help orchardist attain close to optimal condition. Furthermore, the application of imperialist competitive algorithm not only can offer optimum pattern of walnut production, but also be extended to the world for different crops.

The present article includes studies on the importance of addressing strategic issues in the field of general policies adopted and strategies for the development of renewable energy in Iran. Considering that energy is one of the determining indicators in economic development and the development and optimization of renewable energy can play an effective role in economic growth and protection of environmental conditions, this article tries to introduce the types of renewable energy and general principles. They point to the policies that ultimately determine the priority and necessity of using some of them for the country and explain why and how to use them. The general principles discussed in this article include the advantages, disadvantages, potentials, and, most importantly, comparative comparisons with two neighboring countries. The results of these studies show that despite Iran’s diverse potentials in the field of renewable energy, wind energy has a higher priority than other cases in terms of economic justification and market competition, and domestic production rates. Other renewable energy sources for power generation and grid connection are less of a priority for short- or medium-term investment. However, for non-grid use in the country, they can also be very useful in the short term. In general, Iran can be a hub for renewable energy.

The Sistan Delta in Iran is located at the end of a closed basin with nearly 100% of the supply coming from Afghanistan. This supply is supporting irrigated agriculture in the area and is the source for the lake system around the delta. These Hamoun lakes are ecological very valuable wetlands; a number of them are registered as Ramsar sites. The Iranian government tries to improve the living conditions of the people in the area, among others by providing infrastructure for irrigated agriculture. Further development of the irrigated area will mean less water for the Hamouns with resulting lower average water coverage of the lakes. This will not only endanger the ecosystem that the Hamouns support but also the livelihoods of the people that depend on the goods and services that the lakes provide. This paper describes a study that has been carried out to support decision making on potential development schemes in the delta. The non-availability of data from Afghanistan requires the development of various tools and the use of remote sensing techniques to enable to make estimates for the river flow that Iran can expect from Afghanistan. An IWRM approach has been used for the balancing of interests involved. Some preliminary conclusions are described.

Sustainable development by emphasizing on satisfying the current needs of the general public without threating their futures, alongside with taking the environment and future generations under consideration, has become one of the prominent issues in different societies. Therefore, identifying and prioritizing the key factors of sustainable architecture according to regional and cultural features could be the first step in sustaining the architecture as a process and an outcome. In this paper, the key indicators of the environmental sustainability in contemporary architecture of Iran has been identified and prioritized. This study has been performed in three phases. First, identifying key factors of environmental sustainability according to the experts&rsquo; point of view and transforming the collected data to triangular fuzzy numbers. Subsequently, the best-worst multi-criteria decision-making method (henceforth BWM) under grey system circumstances has determined the weights and priority of the identified criteria. Eventually, identified key factors were prioritized by the complex proportional assessment method (hereafter COPRAS) under the condition of fuzzy sets. The results indicate that the key factors of creating engagement between buildings and other urban systems has the highest priority in the built environment sustainability in contemporary architecture and proving building management systems has the lowest.

The issue of water and energy crisis has been turned into the global matters which need to be tackled jointly. Accordingly, as a reliable solution, floating solar power plants, in which photovoltaic modules are used on the surface of water infrastructures such as reservoir dam, has recently been attracting much interest. In addition to energy generation, this system provides some additional advantages over the land-based system such as conserving the land and the water and increasing the efficiency of the modules. This study first comprehensively reviews the literature and then proposes a practical framework to evaluate the potential of using floating solar photovoltaic (FSPV) systems, taking important factors into account. To this end, as a specific application of the proposed framework, five important reservoir dams in Iran are selected, and the performance of the FSPV plant is analyzed in terms of energy generation, evaporation reduction, economic efficiency and environmental improvement factors considering different coverage percentages of reservoirs’ surfaces. Based on the cost-benefit analysis, results show the FSPV outperforms other alternatives for energy generation and water-saving. It takes 5–6 years for the investment cost to be returned. Given Iran’s vast potential for solar radiation, and its huge energy demand and critical water situation, results indicate that Iran can effectively harness solar energy through FSPV systems which help conserve the water in addition to support sustainable energy production.

Iran is among the top ten CO2 emitters in the world and has pledged to reduce such emissions by up to 12 percent by 2030 through various policies and strategies. However, achieving this is somewhat undermined by the country’s heavy reliance on fossil fuels which contributes to environmental pollution and depletion of natural resources. It is therefore important to have an understanding of the economic, social, and environmental subsystems and their interactions in order to formulate a suitable development path or model. Due to the lack of comprehensive studies on the current situation and the dynamics among these variables, this paper provides a multi-stage analysis of the issues based on data from 1992 to 2015 to construct the principal component analysis (PCA) combined index for each subsystem. Then, the interactions among the subsystems are investigated over the short- and long-terms using the vector autoregressive (VAR) model. The results of the PCA show that Iran lacks a balanced sustainable development approach as improvements in environmental indicators do not match those of the society and the economy indices. Further, the associated time path for the economic and societal indices depicts an increasing trend over time, especially in the economy index and that, since 2010, this subsystem has overtaken the societal index. Estimations of the VAR model, impulse response functions, and variance decomposition analysis show that the country’s economic development has seriously undermined the environment even as improving the social indices has strengthened the environmental indicators. The interactions among subsystems show that economic development of the country took little consideration of environmental issues. This is the main reason for the backwardness of the environmental indices and its divergence from economic and societal indices. It is clear that assuming equal rates of growth for all subsystems have not produced a balanced development path. For Iran to achieve her sustainable development goals there should be increased focus on the environmental subsystem with the overall system converging symmetrically when the high growth rate assumption (double) is applied for this index compared with the societal and economical indices.

The paper outlines the application of a mathematical model of sustainability to an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) of two opencast iron ore mines in Iran. The model’s application to the EIA, which used the Folchi method, was undertaken for the purpose of indicating the potential level and nature of sustainability (if appropriate) of the two mines. The results indicated that both Chogart and Gol-e-Gohar iron ore mine were deemed to be potentially unsustainable. The results suggests the delicate balance and failure of achieving some form of sustainability in regards to mining in Iran, due to the impacts it has upon the local environment and community affected. The paper concludes as to the potential significance of the model’s application in the attainment of the goal of sustainable mining.

This study investigates the capacities of Iran as a developing country to attain the full meaning of sustainability and explores the achievability of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through a conceptual system dynamics (SD) model. From one perspective, investigating complex systems such as sustainable development requires research methods that take into account the dynamic interdependencies among the 17 SDGs. From another perspective, although achieving SDGs are a universal agenda for all nations, the evaluation of each country's accomplishments has to be based on its national capacities and challenges in the way of implementing these goals. Therefore, as a response to this research agenda, the presented conceptual SD model of sustainable development consists of 14 causal loops that highlight the direct and indirect interdependencies among the SDGs. Moreover, based on the proposed SD model, it is concluded that not only the obstacles in the way of attaining several SDGs in Iran, namely as 1) regional conflicts and environmental concerns, 2) internal conflicts of interests among key stakeholders, 3) sanctions, and 4) absence of updated data and credible evaluation mechanism, makes it impossible for the country to reach the preordained milestones of specific SDGs, but also they would eventually affect the achievements of other goals badly. Furthermore, the presented study reveals that I) SDG 9 and SDG 17, II) SDG 8, III) SDG 12, and IV) SDG 13, SDG 14, SDG 15, respectively have the highest influence on achieving the desired behavior of the system in the context of Iran. This study provides valuable insights to the local managers in Iran in designing a set of prioritized policies for mainstreaming the 2030 Agenda into national plans and for the policymakers in other developing countries, creates a profound understanding of the systematic relationships among SDGs.

The paper provides for an evaluation of the potential level and nature of sustainable development of the Sabalan geothermal power plant in NW Iran, to be operational in 2011. The paper achieves this by applying a mathematical model of sustainable development developed by the author (re: Phillips [17], [18]), in respect to the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) conducted by Yousefi et al. [13] using the Rapid Impact Assessment Matrix (RIAM) methodology (re: Pastakia [15]; Pastakia and Jensen [16]). Using a model application methodology developed for the RIAM, the results indicated that the nature of sustainable development for Sabalan was considered to be very weak (S = 0.063). This was due to the imbalance between negative environmental impacts and positive socio-economic impacts deriving from the project. Further, when placed into context with a similar set of results obtained from the EIA of the Tuzla geothermal power plant by Baba [35] also using the RIAM methodology, then the similarities between the results obtained raises some legimate questions as to the sustainable development credentials of geothermal power production.

Housing affordability is an important policy goal. However, housing is not truly affordable if located in an inaccessible area with high transportation costs. Increasing the supply of affordable housing in accessible locations helps achieve multiple planning objectives: it reduces transportation costs, improves economic opportunity for disadvantaged groups, reduces accident risks, conserves energy and reduces pollution emissions. In recent years researchers have developed analysis methods for measuring total housing and transportation costs for different locations within cities, called a Housing and Transportation (H+T) Affordability Index. This study applies this type of analysis in Qom City, Iran. The results indicate that suburban-area households spend more than 57% of their monthly income on housing and transport, significantly more than the 45% spent by households in the central district. This is consistent with research results in other urban areas. This illustrates the feasibility of applying housing and transportation affordability analysis in developing country cities to help identify truly affordable and sustainable development.

In view of controversial environmental issues and increased public awareness, companies are increasingly under pressure from their beneficiaries and governments to become environmentally friendly. These environmentally competitive conditions have led companies to emphasize green practices in their daily operations, and a critical aspect of environmental operations involves the selection of circular suppliers for collaboration. In this paper, a novel approach is developed by integrating multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methods and fuzzy inference system (FIS) to evaluate and rank the suppliers towards the transition in the circular supply chain. In the proposed approach, the weights of sub-criteria are determined based on the fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (FAHP) method and, then, the score of each supplier in terms of each criterion is calculated by the fuzzy technique for order of preference by similarity to the ideal solution (FTOPSIS). At the end, the final score of the suppliers is calculated and the suppliers are ranked using a FIS. Since each method of the above-mentioned suffers some drawbacks in addition to its unique advantages, this study attempts to overcome these disadvantages through the integration of these methods for the first time. This study contributes to the sustainable development goals (SDG’s) such as Good Health, and Wellbeing (SDG 3); Clean Water and Sanitation (SDG 6); Decent Work and Economic Growth (SDG 8); Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure (SDG 9); Responsible Consumption and Production (SDG 12) and Climate Action (SDG 13). In this way, a practical approach will be proposed for ranking suppliers in the circular supply chain. This approach was applied to an Iranian petrochemical company with six suppliers involved. The performance of proposed approach is validated through comparing it with two other methods by using the Spearman rank correlation coefflcient. The results, obtained through comparisons and experts’ opinions, show that the proposed approach is efficient and applicable.

The present study aimed to develop a practical framework consisting of GIS and MCDM to assess the development sustainability of Karaj, a city in the west of Tehran, Iran. Firstly, the influencing factors on sustainable urban development including seven criteria and 24 sub-criteria were screened and selected based on literature review, interviews with experts and Delphi technique. Then, the criteria were weighted and prioritized using Group Fuzzy BWM (GFBWM) and Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) methods. Fuzzy logic and Weighted Linear Combination (WLC) methods in GIS were used to determine the sustainability of Karaj for urban development. Finally, Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) was used to rank the identified areas. Our findings showed that the socioeconomic criterion and employment sub-criterion were the most important in AHP and GF-BWM methods. Both methods estimated that about 30% of the entire study area was highly sustainable in terms of urban development with no significant difference between the two methods. Finally, TOPSIS selected the center and north of the city as those with the highest priority. The integrated approach used in this study provided a flexible tool for analysis of the sustainable development, useful for planners and city managers.

One of the main goals of implementation of the Integrated Coastal Zone Management in Iran is to establish sustainable social and economic development in the coastal areas. The main strategy for achieving this goal is by encouraging the economic activities at the coastal areas that are consistent with environmental capacities. Tourist industry has a special place in the national economy, and it plays the most dynamic economic role in sustainable development. A large number of people usually choose this area for recreation as a result of the beautiful landscapes consisting of green forest, hills, rivers and wetland. Therefore, the objective of this study is to determine the optimal tourism sites among various tourism alternatives based on ICZM strategies. This study develops an evaluation model based on the analytic network process (ANP) and the technique for order performance by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS), to help the investors in tourism industries, for the selection of the optimal tourism site in the Integrated Coastal Zone Management in a fuzzy environment, where the vagueness and subjectivity are handled with linguistic values parameterized by triangular fuzzy numbers. The ANP is used to analysis the structure of tourism site selection problem and determine the weights of the criteria, while Fuzzy TOPSIS method is utilized to obtain final priorities. A real world application is performed to illustrate the utilization of the model for the tourism site selection problem. Furthermore, for convenience and accuracy in calculating the relative weights of the criteria, Super Decisions software was used. The proposed model adopted in Qeshm Island considers and interprets the effectiveness and feasibility of the model.

Many green school frameworks exist for guiding schools toward sustainable choices. Some global standards and global green school rating systems are similar to green school rating systems found within individual countries. However, wide-ranging global guidance cannot be generalized to unique and varied national circumstances. Countries use a host of methods to rate green schools. The purpose of the current study was to design and validate a national rating system for green schools in Iran that is based on global standards. The rating system was built with insights from experts and from principals in Iranian green schools. Qualitative and quantitative measurements including: Pseudo Delphi, focus groups, Thurstone Case V, online survey and conjoint analysis were applied to design the national rating system. Four classes of green schools have been proposed: Excellent, Very Good, Good and Non-Green. This system allows the status of individual schools in Iran to be judged with respect to a national rating system. . This article introduces the concepts, requirements and a national rating system for green schools in Iran. The goal of green schools is to cultivate better educated pupils more aware of sustainability.

While there are many indices to gauge growth and development, there remains an ambiguity on how best to measure the development of tourism in rural locations. Current thinking emphasizes the specific characteristics of a given location and the European Charter for Sustainable Tourism in Protected Areas depicts a requirement for participatory processes in local development. This study is inspired by implementation of the European Charter in Northern Italy, using it as a guideline. The context for this study is Hajij Village in Iran, and the approach adopted differed from that undertaken in Italy with regards to the main target, time and procedures of implementation. The study proposes the novel index based on the weighted averages of 20 variables as used with a sample of 87 members of the Hajij Community. The study explores the possibility of quantitative measurements between the weaknesses, strengths, threats, and opportunities associated with development plans.

Today, medical tourism is one of the fastest growing sectors of the tourism industry around the world. Medical tourism can contribute to the sustainable development and economic dynamism of countries. Therefore, in this study, we prioritize the world’s leading countries in medical tourism for Iranians. First, five main criteria and 20 sub-criteria were selected, which are the reasons for choosing a country as a medical tourism destination. In this paper a combined fuzzy SWARA-PROMETHEE approach was used to prioritize tourism destinations. The acronym PROMETHEE stands for Preference Ranking Organization Method for Enrichment Evaluation method and represents an useful MCDA (Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis) tool. On the other hand, SWARA acronym means Step-wise Weight Assessment Ratio Analysis. The criteria were weighted using the fuzzy SWARA approach. In the following, using the PROMETHEE approach, we prioritized eight countries as tourism destinations, then we identified criteria related to sustainability of medical tourism destinations and prioritized medical tourism destinations using these criteria as the contributions of this paper. The weights obtained for criteria “Abilities of skilled staff,” “Applied medical equipment,” “Marketing capability,” “Type of service provided,” and “Application of information and communications technology” were 0.176, 0.232, 0.108, 0.395, and 0.089, respectively. The results show that medical tourism destination priorities for Iranians are India (Phi = 0.1396), Malaysia (Phi = 0.1128), Panama (Phi = 0.0976), Mexico (Phi = 0.0790), Singapore (Phi = 0.0096), Taiwan (Phi = −0.0442), Brazil (Phi = −0.1747), and Costa Rica (Phi = −0.2196), respectively. Negative Phi values indicate below average performance of those countries and positive Phi values indicate above average performance of those criteria. The results indicate that countries with negative Phi values should be strengthened relative to the improvement of some criteria.

Sustainable supply chain is widely studied and investigated in various papers due to the presence of increasing environmental pollution and social risks caused by manufactories, transportation vehicles, and unused and defective products spilled into the nature; e.g. tires. This paper designs a closed loop supply chain network taking into consideration sustainability aspects and quantity discounts under uncertainty. To this end, a stochastic multi-objective optimization for supplier selection and location-allocation-routing problems is formulated. The first and second objectives of the model attempt to minimize total costs and environmental emission effects, respectively. The third objective seeks to maximize the responsiveness of the integrated network. Also, ɛ-constraint method is applied to solve the proposed framework. To verify the model, a real-world case study placed in Iran is provided and a sensitivity analysis is performed to measure the efficiency of the proposed framework. Results confirm the efficiency of the proposed approach, showing the practicability of the proposed approach for managers. Finally, future research directions are discussed.

In recent years, developing countries are facing huge challenges in the management of ‘Waste from Electrical and Electronic Equipment’ (WEEE). Waste from electrical and electronic equipment contains hazardous materials that may have an impact on human environment and health if not properly managed. Therefore, governments should be concerned and be seeking ways to design the recovery and disposal networks to manage WEEE waste treatment strategies. The objective of this paper is to design a country level WEEE recovery network based on sustainable development in which economic, environmental and social issues are considered. A simulation optimisation model is developed to determine the best locations for the collection centres and also recycling plants for managing total WEEE in Iran, so that the government can simultaneously perform the trade-off between environmental issues and economical and social impacts. The proposed model was examined through an illustrative case study from Iran's current WEEE situation.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the sustainability of two actual wastewater treatment plants using the eco-efficiency index based on emergy and life cycle analysis. The life cycle analysis is used for environmental investigation to estimate the eco-efficiency index. Moreover, the emergy theory indicating the input and output flows of the ecosystem are applied to assess the sustainability considering ecosystem services. Two treatment plants are studied in the city of Mashhad in Iran. The potential for sustainability improvement of plants is analyzed in some scenarios including the production of agricultural compost from sludge, 10% reduction of energy consumption, and 10% reduction of chlorine consumption. The eco-efficiency index based on life cycle analysis determines KhinArab plant with 10% reduction of energy consumption as sustainable alternative. While the eco-efficiency index based on emergy analysis as well as emergy sustainability index introduce Al-Teymour treatment plant with installation of a composting unit as the most sustainable option. The no-action costs play a major role in the interpretation of results. The methodology and the results of this study will be of great interest for wastewater treatment plant managers and water authorities as well as citizens to increase the sustainability of water cycle in the city.

Over the past three decades, sustainable development (SD) has gained wide recognition among decision makers and politicians. Today, this concept aims to provide a healthier environment, more-improved society, and developed economy in both developed and developing world communities. Thus, to achieve a sustainable community, one needs to first better understand the underlying indicators and adopt appropriate sustainable policies in different sections and sectors of the community. As a vital component, the construction industry plays a key role in SD, which has drawn the attention of decision makers to find sustainable solutions worldwide for such an active industry. Industrial buildings, as a large segment of the construction industry, consume vast amounts of energy and financial resources and have a major role in job creation and improving the quality of life in a society. Therefore, this paper focuses on social, economic, and environmental aspects of SD of industrial buildings to evaluate the sustainable indicators and to develop a combinatory multi-criteria group decision-making framework for optimal selection of sustainable options of industrial buildings. The developed framework considers uncertainty alongside various preference orders and risk attitudes of decision makers -using utility functions. The decision making process consists of two stages: the first stage, takes the advantages of integration of utility function, ELECTRE I (the elimination and choice translating reality), and Grey theory to create the new method of Grey-Utility-ELECTRE to rank the feasible alternatives. And the second stage utilizes the ordered weighted averaging (OWA) aggregation operator to aggregate the preferences of environmental, social, and economic dimension, as three decision makers, to determine the final ranking. Because this research focuses on the sustainability of industrial buildings, the performance and capabilities of the developed framework are demonstrated using five petrochemical buildings of a petrochemical company in Iran, as a case study.

Iran has a long history of effective and sustainable water resource management under arid and semi-arid conditions. However, today the country is faced with serious challenges in the water sector, including rising water demand and shortages, declining groundwater levels, deteriorating water quality, and increasing threats to the environment and various ecosystems. If these issues persist, tragedy will be the inevitable result. Over the last three decades tremendous efforts have been made to supply water, primarily through an extensive program of development, with dam building at the forefront. This paper offers an introduction to the different factors and elements influencing the water balance in today’s Iran and presents a perspective on the trend of dam building in recent times.

Recent years, air pollution phenomenon has become one of the crucial problems of Tehran, Iran. Due to main political and economic role of Tehran, population of this metropolis is high and increasing. Urban transportation of this highly populated city contributes more than 70% of air pollution problem in this city. Although a number of urban transport developments, policy measures and regulations have been employed, Tehran’s air pollution has remained crucial thus far. Finding ways to encourage individuals to behave more sustainable can be considered as a substantial approach of tackling environmental problems such as air pollution, since it can be highly cost-effective and fast. This research attempt to evaluate the impacts of two factors of outcome framing and psychological distance of air pollution on citizen’s willingness to behave environmental friendly, particularly to change the travel mode choice. Results illustrate that communicating the consequences of air pollution can provoke individuals’ to act more environment friendly or in particular to change their intention for using more sustainable mode of transportation. Framing the positive consequences of mitigating air pollution take precedence over framing the negative consequences. Moreover the gains of mitigating air pollution have an impact on the willingness to use of bicycle and bus. Results also show that decreasing the psychological distance of air pollution in order to make manipulated frame more personally relevant has no significant impact on respondents.

The overarching goal of this research was to provide sound strategies to further the development of rapeseed farming and to increase the sustainability and productivity of rapeseed production systems. Progress toward this goal was made by assessing subsistence and commercial rapeseed production systems in Khorramabad, Iran during the 2017–2018 crop year using both emergy and economic indices. The total emergy supporting the systems was estimated to be 4.13E+16 and 2.47E‏+16 sej ha−1 yr−1 for the commercial and subsistence rapeseed production systems, respectively. The calculated values of the modified environmental sustainability index, renewable emergy ratio, environmental loading ratio, and modified environmental loading ratio showed the higher ecological sustainability of the subsistence farming system compared to the commercial system for rapeseed production. According to these indices, the main reason for the lower sustainability of the commercial rapeseed production system was the large amount of soil organic matter that was lost per unit of nonrenewable resources used. A large emergy exchange ratio in favor of the buyer (EERYield); increased environmental sustainability, when the market impact is considered (Emergy Index of Sustainable Development, EISD); lower emergy required per unit of output (Unit Emergy Value, UEV) and the higher productivity of the production factors (Total Factor Productivity); all reflect the relative advantage of the commercial system over subsistence farming. Our findings revealed that the ecological sustainability of the commercial rapeseed production system can be improved by employing scientific solutions for comprehensive management of the ecosystem, especially through the amelioration of soil organic matter and prevention of its loss. Besides improving the farmers’ technical knowledge, the integration of small lots into the overall production system is recommended for improving the economic sustainability of the subsistence farming systems.

This article questions whether the 1973 Helmand/Hirmand water treaty between Afghanistan and Iran is an appropriate institutional tool for sustainable water resources management in the context of transboundary water resources development. It shows that by failing to fulfil the most basic requisites for integrated water resources management and river basin management, the treaty does not ensure the integrity of the downstream agro-ecological system in the Sistan Delta. As a result, the 1973 treaty may not be the most relevant water regime for helping to balance legitimate development in upstream Afghanistan while also limiting harms to downstream Iran.

Population explosion, irresponsible consumerism, environmental catastrophes, tremendous market-based urban development and the dedication of cities to cars and concrete rather than citizens and environment has put a big question mark over the future of the world’s developing countries. Urban sustainability has emerged as the only solution to the environmental, social and economic challenges facing our cities. In recent years in countries struggling with the concept of urban sustainability, such as Iran, academic circles and the state have had heated debates over sustainable development. The purpose of this paper is to examine the current situation of sustainable development of the built environment in Iran. The focus is on recognition of urban governance, policies and regulations. The paper examines the scope of sustainable technologies employed in Iran in terms of the development of energy efficiency and renewable energies. This is followed by an investigation of urban sustainability assessment methods through which the paper tackles policy, technology and assessment mechanism issues from a perspective of sustainable built environment development in both theoretical research and practical development in Iran.

In this study, sustainable agriculture refers to a kind of agriculture which is ecologically appropriate, economically justifiable, and socially desirable. Approach: There were two objectives for this study .The first objective of this study was to identify the effective factors in achieving sustainable agriculture. The second objective was to categorize the effective factors in achieving sustainable agriculture. In this study the Delphi technique has been used. Sustainable agriculture expert researchers of statistical and related issues were 56 scholars selected from the experts in the research centers of Tehran and Yazd provinces. The instruments used in data collection were three series of questionnaires sent to the researchers via email, fax and mail. Results: Findings have shown that the researchers have identified effective factors in achieving sustainable agriculture in Iran as the sections of Infrastructure, policy-making, economy, society, participation, research, extension and education. From the 35 factors exposed to the researchers, the factors of attainment of researches related to sustainable agriculture by agricultural research institutions in Iran, Interaction and participation of researchers, extension educators, farmers and policy-makers of sustainable agriculture, attempt to give priority to those who are the most appropriate from the standpoint of practically creating interactive, logical as well as flexible planning system between different sections dealing with sustainable agriculture have gained the agreement of 100% researchers. Conclusion: The important conclusion is that the communication between extension, farmers and policymaker should be strengthened. So extension organization should attempt to promote working relationships with research institution, NGOs, agricultural institutions and decision-making systems of policymakers and putting efforts to use participatory approaches in this respect.

Abstract As a response to the urgent call for recovery actions against the COVID-19 crisis, this research aims to identify action priority areas post COVID-19 toward achieving the targets of the sustainable development goals (SDGs) within the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development launched by the United Nations (UN). This paper applies a mixed-method approach to map the post-COVID-19 SDGs targets on a fuzzy action priority surface at the country level in Iran, as a developing country, by taking the following four main steps: (1) using a modified Delphi method to make a list of the SDGs targets influenced by COVID-19; (2) using the best–worst method, as a multi-criteria decision-making tool, to weight the COVID-19 effects on the SDGs targets achievement; also (3) to weight the impact of the SDGs targets on the sustainable development implementation; and finally (4) designing a fuzzy inference system to calculate the action priority scores of the SDGs targets. As a result, reduction of poor people proportion by half (SDG 1.2), development-oriented policies for supporting creativity and job creation (SDG 8.3), end the pandemics and other epidemics (SDG 3.3), reduction of deaths and economic loss caused by disasters (SDG 11.5), and financial support for small-scale enterprises (SDG 9.3) were identified as the highest priorities for action, respectively, in the recovery agenda for sustainable development post COVID-19. The provided fuzzy action priority surface supports the UN’s SDGs achievement and implementing the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development in Iran. It also serves as a guideline to help the government, stakeholders, and policy-makers better analyze the long-term effects of the pandemic on the SDGs and their associated targets and mitigate its adverse economic, social, and environmental consequences.

Abstract Embracing green innovation is one of the most common elements for improving the firm's environmental performance. In a business environment with high level of bureaucratic corruption, companies can easily neglect their environmental accountability. Therefore, strong motivations are needed to prompt or force companies to acknowledge their environmental responsibility. To discover which types of companies embrace green practices, this study explored the association between customer relationship orientation—as a part of the firms' culture—and the adoption of green product and process innovation via a mediator, market‐focused learning. Results from two surveys of 224 small and medium‐sized enterprises in Iran post‐sanction (late 2016 and early 2017) showed that the adoption of green product and process innovation is higher among small and medium‐sized enterprises with customer‐oriented corporate culture. In addition, this research verified that market‐focused learning was an underlying mechanism through which customer‐oriented corporate culture was related to the adoption of green product and process innovation. Accordingly, this study identified the extent to which companies' building a “constant relationship with customers” was a suitable way to identify those companies' going green and showing more environmental accountability in a bureaucratic corrupted environment.

Petroleum Supply Chain is one of the most important and sophisticated managing missions in both developing and developed countries. Nowadays, environmental pollution is another critical factor in designing the petroleum supply chain. This importance encourages the governments to minimize the amount of environmental pollution and maximize their obtained profit simultaneously, by enacting required legislations on the transportation modes and the refineries. Considering maximizing the job creation and each stakeholder's profit, and minimizing the emission of CO2 and other greenhouse gases at the same time is called Sustainable Petroleum Supply Chain which has been paid little attention despite its significance. Therefore, the modelling of petroleum supply chain considering sustainability and pricing issues is investigated for the first time in this work and a sustainable competitive petroleum supply chain (SCPSC) model is developed to minimize pollution while maximizing the profits and job creation. This problem is a two level model. The first level in SCPSC is the competition between the supply chains of the government and the private sectors, which is modelled by the game theory approach including Nash and Stackelberg equilibria. The optimal price and demand for each supply chain determined in the first level are considered as the second level parameters. In the second level, the optimal values of the decisions in designing the petroleum supply chain will be obtained by solving Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) under the mentioned three objective functions. Finally, the proposed model is applied to a real world case in the national Iranian oil company (NIOC). Based on the results of the Stackelberg equilibrium, the government profits increase by 11.12% while that of the private sector decreases by 25.4 and 28.11%. Increasing in the government profit is due to increased demand provided by government. The results show that the whole profit of the petroleum supply chain in Nash equilibrium is 9.8% more than that in the Stackelberg equilibrium.

Transportation industry is one of the major contributors to the environmental pollution. Analyzing efficiency of this industry helps people and societies to enhance their awareness of its performance and develop managerial strategies. The need for sustainable development in transportation industry requires efficiency analysis over time. Malmquist productivity index (MPI) is a popular approach for performance evaluation during consecutive periods. This study offers a novel analysis and contribution to the knowledge of efficiency evaluation with DEA by (i) proposing a novel common set of weights model for double frontier DEA, (ii) dealing with undesirable outputs for efficiency analysis, and (iii) deriving a common set of weights for Malmquist productivity index using ideal point method. This paper investigates freight transportation in Iran to illustrate the applicability of the proposed CSW model. Developing CSW for MPI analysis to decompose overall efficiency into efficiency change and technical change enables decision makers to accurately trace the eco-innovation and environmental efficiency in this industry. Results show that majority of DMUs (except 4 DMUs) have experienced a constant or declining trend in terms of eco-innovation and environmental efficiency during 2014–2017.

Over the past decade, several new approaches have emerged to renewable energy education that seek to address the needs of the 21st century for sustainable energy supply systems. In addition, unlike conventional architectural education which does not cover renewable energy issues in its curriculum, these days, renewable energy education has an identity of its own within the discipline of architecture. This paper will clarify academic obstacles that are impeding the development of sustainable architectural education. These obstacles include: ambiguous definitions of sustainable architecture, confusion over the meaning of sustainability, and lack of experts in this field. In the last part of this paper we compare academic architectural education in the field of renewable energy in two countries, Iran as a developing country in Asia and Australia as a developed country in Oceania. Lessons can be drawn from these case studies in regard to the obstacles and progress in the development of sustainable architecture education.

The increasing use of car in developing countries is an important reason for traffic congestion and pollution. Using a car may partly reflect a normative choice, but the majority of previous studies that used the Norm-Activation Model (NAM) to study pro-environmental transport behavior were conducted among the general public in high income and developed countries in Europe and Northern America. The present research aimed to examine the causal chain of the NAM theory and the role of the NAM dimensions as well as socio-demographic and situational characteristics for parental sustainable transport mode choice on their children’s school travels in an Iranian context. Among the three core NAM dimensions, awareness of consequences refers to how aware people are of the negative consequences of car use. Ascription of responsibility refers to whether individuals perceive themselves to be personally responsible for the consequences of car use, and personal norms are defined as a moral personal obligation to take action for collective benefit. In 2014, a self-completion questionnaire survey (n = 1,078) was carried out among parents of pupils (aged 7–9 years). Results (based on n = 733) showed that the NAM was not significantly associated with sustainable transport mode choice in the current study. However, the structural equation modeling showed that the underlying NAM system was supported by the data. Among the socio-demographic characteristics, parents in households who had more cars were less likely to choose sustainable transport modes. Also, accessibility to public transport had a positive effect on the choice of sustainable transport modes. A potential reason for the lack of empirical support for the behavioral link between the NAM causal chain and sustainable mode choice could have been due to that study area may be rather unsupportive of sustainable transport choices, and spatial factors may be more important precursors of mode use than normative processes. Overall, the current findings showed that demographic, household and situational characteristics were more important than the NAM dimensions in predicting sustainable transport mode choice in an Iranian sample. In order to promote sustainable transport mode use, it seems to be more feasible to focus on developing a safe infrastructure and to extend the availability of sustainable transport options in Iran.

In today's industrial world, depletion of fossil resources and the adverse environmental effects of consuming fossil fuels have become one of the serious challenges in sustainable development of the societies. In recent years, substantial attention has been paid to using biomass for producing bioenergy in order to increase economic performance, reduce environmental effects, and providing new opportunities in different societies in pursuit of sustainable development. The complexities related to procurement, logistics, technology selection, raw material management (biomass), and product distribution planning are the main causes of using the optimization models to design the bioenergy supply chains. On the other hand, the globalization of economy and industry increased the significance of the subjects related to global logistics and the ecological and social objectives of the countries have undeniable influences on each other. Hence, in this paper, a mathematical model has been developed to redesign a global bioenergy supply network. This model has simultaneously studied the economic, environmental, and social objectives and the environmental coefficients of the model were calculated using SimaPro software. The multi-objective model was solved by augmented ɛ-constraint method and the decision makers were informed of the obtained Pareto solutions. Data taken from the study on Iran and Armenia was used to validate the model and the Geographic information system (GIS) software was used with the goal of studying the geographical map of each country more accurately.

Developed nations acknowledge sustainable development as a legal right for current and future generations. Although instances of domestic and international efforts are prevalent, there is a long way to go before accomplishing developmental ideals. A practical approach for realizing the vital goals of sustainable development is of the utmost importance. In effect, the construction sector requires extensive forward-looking studies for strategizing, building and granting a sustainable future. The inconsistency between the goals and activities of different sectors is a main impediment upon undertaking sustainable development’s goals; decision and lawmakers must consider the purpose and interests of the building industry on a micro and macro level. This paper is a brief review for understanding the concept of sustainable development and illustrates some of the international efforts, and highlights them for decision makers. Using the ‘PESTLE’ analysis technique, external and internal factors influencing sustainability in the Iranian construction sector were identified. Interviews were conducted with experts using the ‘Snowball’ research method due to the lack of knowledgeable respondents in the subject area. 11 Practical steps needed in Iran were recommended and sorted by their importance to make this vision a reality. The results can be generalized to other disciplines as well.

Purpose Sustainable development is the management and conservation of the basic natural resources through which organizational and technological changes are lead to meet present and future needs of humans. In developing and analyzing the solutions based on sustainable development principles, an integrated and holistic approach needs to be pursued. Not only system dynamics has the essential tools for systemic analysis, but also it is an appropriate approach for perceiving problems and offering solutions. The aim of this study is to present an integrated and systemic model to analyze the existent dynamics in sustainable development of Iran’s farming industry. Design/methodology/approach To achieve the mathematical equations and values of model’s variables, a simulation is carried out using the data gathered from Damavand city, Tehran, Iran. The parameters of the model are selected and calculated considering the specifications of this case study. After modeling the system, Vensim simulation software has been employed, followed by identifying the leverage points of the model; then, a set of scenarios have been generated and tested through simulation to achieve a much improved understanding of the system’s dynamic behavior. Findings The results show that two factors are among the most important leverage points: “profit gained from agriculture” and “required water”. The authors could also observe that the main issue in Damavand is the lack of water for which saving policies would be a major step toward agriculture’s sustainable development in this area. Originality/value The paper shows how System Dynamics simulation approach can provide deep insights into the field of sustainable development and present efficient policies for agriculture sustainability.

Today, the concept of sustainable development in supply chain management is introduced as one of the basic concepts in production management. Paying attention to economic, social and environmental needs of the society is essential in gaining competitive advantage in the global market. Therefore, in order to achieve sustainable development, appropriate programs and strategies should be considered by managers throughout the supply chain. Moreover, the internal and external drivers of the environment in the supply chain will lead organizations—willingly or not—towards sustainability. Hence, this paper examines the internal and external drivers in order to study strategic sustainability orientation. The results showed that internal drivers, including attitudes of managers and their support for sustainable programs, has a positive impact on strategic sustainability orientation. The study showed that external drivers of the organizations affect internal drivers, and compared to external drivers, internal drivers have a more important role in creating sustainable orientation within an organization. In addition, the mediating role of internal drivers in relation to external drivers and strategic sustainability orientation is approved. This study is conducted on 120 food industry companies of Iran.

Wetlands are among the most productive ecosystems on the earth. They produce various market and non-market goods and services, which have a significant role in human welfare. Despite the great opportunities from sustainable development, wetlands all over the world are under serious threat from a diverse range of non-sustainable activities. One of the major reasons for excessive depletion and the conversion of wetland resources is due to underestimating the non-market values of wetlands during development decisions. Shadegan International Wetland (SIW) in southern Iran is one of these wetland areas that is threatened by undervaluation and overexploitation from commercial activities. This study utilizes the contingent valuation method to estimate the economic benefits of SIW from the view point of peoples’ willingness to pay (WTP). The logit model was defined based on dichotomous choice to measure individuals’ WTP. The estimated mean WTP was US$ 1.74 per household as a onetime donation. This study concludes that the benefits of SIW to society could encourage managers to set priorities to ensure that the health of the ecosystem, its integrity, and its uniqueness would be conserved in a proper manner.

The COVID-19 crisis has immensely impacted the implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development worldwide. This research aims at providing a policy response to support achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) taking the COVID-19 long-term implications into account. To do so, a qualitative analytical method was employed in the following four steps. First, a fuzzy cognitive map was developed to specify causal-effect links of the interdependent SDGs in Iran as a developing country in the Middle East. Second, potential effects of the pandemic on the SDGs achievement were analyzed. Third, five strategies were formulated, including green management, sustainable food systems, energizing the labor market, inclusive education, and supporting research and technology initiatives in the energy sector. And finally, different scenarios corresponding to the five proposed strategies were tested based on the identified interconnections among the SDGs. The analysis showed that applying each of the five considered strategies or their combination would mitigate the effect of COVID-19 on the SDGs only in case of a medium pandemic activation level. Moreover, implementing a single strategy with a high activation level leads to better outcomes on the SDGs rather than applying a combination of strategies in low or medium activation levels during the pandemic situation. The provided insights support stakeholders and policy-makers involved in the post-COVID-19 recovery action plan towards implementing the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

Abstract Iran occupies a vast area of land with diverse climatic conditions, encompassing a variety of production practices and rich biological diversity. Traditional agriculture was widespread less than 50 years ago and is still appreciated by some farmers (called 'ignored organic farmers') in Iran. However, such practices have been ignored in the context of current concepts of organic agriculture. It may be impossible or not economically viable to return Iran to traditional production systems, but the long history of environmentally safe production systems could provide an incentive to increase development of organic agriculture and sustainable production systems in Iran. It will not be a question of whether the organic movement continues to grow in Iran (as it has in other countries), but meeting the challenges required to keep pace with this growth without fundamentally challenging or threatening the overall principles of organic agriculture.

In recent decades, agritourism has been suggested as one of the strategies for sustainable development of rural areas and diversification of the rural economy. The main purpose of this research was to review the situation, opportunities and challenges of agritourism in Iran and Poland to create an understanding of the agritourism situation in both countries. The systematic literature review (SLR) was used as the instrument in this study to access the number of possible papers and to understand the literature regarding the history, current states, support policies, developments and challenges of agritourism in Iran and Poland. Published research studies on entrepreneurship and agritourism in Iran and Poland between 2000 and 2022 were assessed. The results of this study showed that the development of agritourism in Poland has a longer history and is more developed compared to Iran and the Iranian authorities should take more measures in managing and developing agritourism. This study provides a major contribution to knowledge by being among the very first studies that examines and compares the situation of agritourism development in Iran and Poland. Practically, this research provides useful understanding of agritourism services and the areas need to be developed in the two countries for the development of agritourism. The article presents the index of positioning a competitive farm and gaining an advantage on the market of agritourism services.

Nowadays, many organizations are trying to balance the social, environmental, and economic aspects of their supply chains to gain competitive advantages against their rivals and have a sustainable supply chain. Steel is one of the most critical raw materials practically used in every aspect of our life, directly or indirectly influencing the industry and economy of a country. The final products of the steel industry can be reused at the end of their lifecycle, making the principles of reverse logistics applicable in the supply chain and turning it to a closed-loop supply chain. In this research, a multi-objective linear mathematical model under uncertainty is developed to optimize a steel sustainable closed-loop supply chain. The existed uncertainty is modeled through a scenario-based method in the stochastic environment, and the proposed multi-objective model is developed following a fuzzy goal programming approach. A real case study is explored in one of the active steel supply chains in Iran to validate the model. The model optimizes total profit, energy, and water consumption, CO2 emission, job opportunity created, and lost working days through determining optimal production technology, whether retailers get changed to hybrid centers or not, and the flow of material and products. The final results show that a mere 1% decrease in the profit can alleviate the harmful environmental effects by 5%. Finally, several managerial implications derived from final results and sensitivity analysis are discussed to provide insights for industry leaders who desire to increase their profits with regard to environmental and social effects.

With a gradual paradigm shift from fossil fuels to clean and renewable energies, many countries seek to make use of these energies in their pursuit of sustainable development. Given the importance of sustainable development, use and expansion of renewable energy sector in developing countries such as Iran, this study identified the critical factors of success and failure in sustainable development of this sector. The effective factors were positioned in a business model canvas. After model validation, factors were partitioned into different levels, the relationships between model dimensions were investigated by interpretive structural modeling and fuzzy cognitive mapping, and finally, the scenarios of development of solar energy sector were analyzed. This study was a survey research based on questionnaires and interviews. The surveyed population consisted of experts in the field of renewable energies in Iran. After positioning the factors in the business model canvas, they were divided into two groups, influenced factors and influencing factors. The scenario analyzed based on the outputs of the software FCMapper indicate that the ability of the renewable energy sector to grow and reach stable revenues depends on due attention to customer segments, establishing strong relationships with targeted customer, and the supportive actions of the government.

A series of various factors such as limitation of fossil fuel resources, negative impacts on environment, fossil fuels prices, political disputes and their effects on supplying sustainable energy are among the reasons which have made many politicians, energy and environment experts move toward the development of a modern structure to secure supply of energy, environment protection and efficiency improvement of energy systems. Hence, most countries have begun to realize that the need for sustainability in energy production and consumption is significantly vital. Therefore, tracking the progress of sustainability is essential. The aim of this paper is to present a set of indicators for Iran, based on the Helio International Sustainable Energy Watch (SEW) indicators, that shows how to track progress toward sustainability in the energy sector. Due to SEW framework, Iran is the closest to sustainability target based on indicators for access to electricity. Iran performs worst on the indicators for CO emissions and energy intensity. Iranian's private sectors had already signed 2 contracts to build plants (more than 600 MW) based on biomass systems and newly developed wind energy (500 MW). Based on Iran Renewable Energy Organization (SUNA) remarks the private sector has submitted a proposal for generating 3000 MW. The objective of present work is to highlight fundamental challenges about the development of renewable energy and policy framework requirements for achievements of sustainable energy in Iran.

Farmers adopt a range of technical and non-technical adaptation behaviors (TANAB) to alleviate the negative effects of drought. Understanding this adaptation behavior and its determinants is essential for improving adaptation capacity and promoting sustainable agriculture. In this study, we investigated the factors affecting TANAB using the Health Belief Model (HBM) as a theoretical framework. A survey was conducted of 320 farmers in Dashtestan County, Bushehr Province, southern Iran, on the shores of Persian Gulf. We used multi-stage stratified random sampling to select the research samples and applied structural equation modeling to analyze the determinants of TANAB. The findings revealed that the self-efficacy variable is the most important predictor of TANAB. As well as self-efficacy, other determinants of technical adaptation behaviors (TAB) are perceived barriers, severity, and susceptibility. Self-efficacy and cue to action were found to determine non-technical adaptive behaviors (NAB). This study indicates the differences between the determinants of TAB and NAB and emphasizes the key role of self-efficacy. The results of this study have implications for policymakers in the agricultural sector and can help in the development of interventionist policies to improve rural development in response to environmental crises. Governments and policymakers need to reinforce capacity-building potential for agricultural extension systems and adaptation training through information and communication technologies. This investment in education is critical for sustainable agricultural development and encourages farmers to adopt appropriate drought strategies aiming reducing farmers’ vulnerability.

The methods to collect and transport various types of medical waste are vital to the management of healthcare waste. The lack of a safe plan for the timely collection and transportation of such wastes may have an undesirable impact on the environment and public health. The present research addresses a real-life healthcare waste collection vehicle routing problem (HWCVRP) for small medical centers in Iran that produce minor amounts of waste and lack on-site facilities to treat wastes of various kinds. This problem involves social, environmental, and economic objective functions, aiming to achieve sustainable development. The social objective function is optimized based on a novel definition of risk in medical waste collection and designed to reduce public health risk by minimizing the time of waste collection from centers that produce a larger volume of more hazardous waste. Furthermore, the present paper provides a comprehensive estimate of fuel consumption in vehicles to be accurately minimized to diminish the environmental hazards involved in sustainable transportation. Also, the economic objective function is set to minimize the variable and fixed costs of transportation. A self-adaptive multi-objective evolutionary algorithm is generated with numerous effective operators to solve the model. Specific metrics are employed to compare the performance of the proposed meta-heuristic algorithm with those of multiple other evolutionary algorithms. The results reveal the effectiveness of the proposed method in reaching high-quality non-dominated solutions. Ultimately, a real-life case study is used to implement the proposed approach and to evaluate its performance.

The South Pars Special Economic Energy Zone (SPSEEZ) is the largest petroleum zone in Iran and the second biggest gas producer in the world. It is now one of the world’s most important eco-industrial poles. Despite the rapid development and activists’ calls to sustainable path, there is little systematic effort in the assessment of industrial zones sustainability in developing countries. Iran, a nation that has ratified the Rio Declaration pact, has moved forward in order to achieve sustainable development. There have always been controversial debates due to its success. This paper employs survey, interview as well as observation to explore the perception of people on planning and sustainable development efforts and to identify the most important challenges at SPSEEZ. The result shows that the major impediment against sustainability is the lack of involvement from urban planners and the public during decision-making process. Finally, the paper contributes to the identification of the most urgent problems in SPSEEZ and the functions of different stakeholders as a reference for better sustainable development planning.

Nowadays, fossil fuels are well known as a predominant source of energy in the planet. Located in the Middle East region, Iran holds one of the largest fossil fuel reservoirs in the world. The country has abundant oil and natural gas fields in various regions; some of them are shared between other countries and have not reached their operational capacity yet. Meanwhile, during recent years and due to global warming followed by environmental global contracts such as Kyoto protocol, using fossil fuels is being criticized to a large extent around the world. Therefore, the global interest has been focused toward clean energy resources. Furthermore, endowed with sundry geographical pattern throughout its land, Iran has adequate renewable energy potentials. So, there will be a serious paradox affecting its whole energy policy: more exploration and extraction of conventional fossil fuels or take advantage of renewable and sustainable energy resources? In this paper, energy structure of Iran is generally overviewed, followed by study of renewable energy potentials in various parts of the country. Afterwards, policy making in renewable energy market, systems, and applicable strategies are elaborated. Furthermore, a number of barriers obstructing the development path of renewable energy schemes and initiatives are presented and discussed in detail.

In much of the world, compressed natural gas (CNG) has been a long recognized alternative transportation fuel due to the fact that it is domestic, one of the cleanest burning and most affordable alternative transportation fuel available – directly addressing three key issues of the countries: national security, global warming & air quality and the economy. However, due to the complex adoption dynamics and diffusion processes, most endeavors to introduce and build sustainable demand for natural gas vehicles (NGVs) have been underachieved. This paper analyzes a wide range of policies to promote natural gas vehicles in new as well as in mature markets. In this paper, several success and failure factors for the introduction of natural gas vehicles (NGVs) are examined and compare the government policies for the adoption of natural gas vehicles (NGVs) throughout the world but majorly concentrated on twelve countries: China, Iran, Pakistan, Argentina, India, Brazil, Thailand, Italy, United States, Germany, Sweden and South Korea. The paper examines the transition road map to CNG technology implantation and identifies lessons that could be useful to developed countries in their efforts to deploy natural gas vehicles.

Lake Urmia (Urumieh in Persian) in north-western Iran is one of the largest permanent hyper-saline lakes in the world and the largest lake in the Middle East. It has numerous ecological, economic and social implications in terms of biodiversity, climate, species, habitat, tourism and recreation. However, during the past decade, the lake has shrunk significantly and its depth has fallen by almost 6 m. Contrary to other studies that have focused on the geomorphology of the lake, this study analyses the socio-environmental impact and provides a sustainable adaptive governance management model for its revival. This study reveals that unless various stakeholders and affected parties are actively involved in an implementable adaptive governance model, the fate of the lake will remain uncertain.

The problems associated with urbanization throughout the world have drawn attention of researchers and policy makers to sustainability issue in cities. However, achieving urban sustainability is hardly possible without enough knowledge concerning the global and national importance of indicators of Sustainable Urban Development (SUD). We attempted to build a comprehensive framework and localize the relevant SUD indicators for Iran. We applied a screening process through Fuzzy Delphi Method (FDM) to narrow down and select the pertinent SUD indicators. Using Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP), the selected indicators were then prioritized based on two scenarios entailing national and provincial scales. The comparison of scenario one (country scale) with scenario two (provincial scale) highlighted differences. Focusing on the importance of the spatial pattern of the indicators, we showed that the provinces of Iran were significantly different in terms of SUD indicators. The results also demonstrated that no single set of SUD indicators with the same relative importance can be used for the whole country, rather the provinces should be treated separately based on their special needs and priorities discernible through studies such as the current one.

The purpose of this paper design a green entrepreneurship model in sustainable development path consistent with the performance of industrial towns in Tehran (center of IRAN). The population was the active small/medium enterprises (SMEs) with full capacity in industrial towns of Tehran, which were about 3000 active units, accounting for 20% of the companies in Tehran industrial towns. Sample size was obtained as 514, which was used in calculations. The results showed that green entrepreneurship mediates the effect of green innovation, organizational culture, competitive advantage, and social-environmental responsibility of company on the financial performance of company. There was no mediating role concerning the effect of state laws and regulations on company’s financial performance. Additionally, market turbulence moderates effect of green entrepreneurship on organization financial performance, but financial shocks do not modulate the effect of green entrepreneurship on organization finance.

Ecotourism, as a form of sustainable nature-based tourism, promotes conservation of ecological and scenic values. In this study, a Spatial Decision Support System, SDSS, was developed based upon Multi Criteria Evaluation, MCE, for ecotourism development in the Caspian Hyrcanian Mixed Forests ecoregion, northern Iran. For this, important criteria and constraints for ecotourism development were shortlisted using the Delphi Method. The criteria were weighted using Analytical Hierarchy Process, AHP. The obtained results indicated that "distance from water resources", "land use", "slope", "soil", "climate", "distance from roads", "land cover density", "erosion", and "distance from residential areas" were the most important criteria, respectively. The findings suggest that GIS-based SDSS is suitable to engage the various criteria affecting the development of ecotourism destinations. This empirical research develops a new method that can significantly facilitate planning forecotourism development with respect to ecological capability of ecotourism destinations.

Although small and medium enterprises are important in the production and employment, these firms have structural limitation in terms of human and material resources. These limitations are highlighted after implementation of targeted subsidies in Iran, release prices of energy carriers, and simultaneity of political and economic situation. The main challenge in the current path of sustainable development is addressed to all sectors of society such as engineering and production. Manufactured products must consider the impact of three aspects of sustainability over their life cycle. The three aspects of sustainability as an integral part of sustainability issues are economic, environmental, and social factors. Therefore, in this study, for achieve sustainable economic development in Iran, consider only economic aspect. Because, it will greatly benefit from the transfer of advanced production technologies in industry through international agreements such as the clean development mechanism (CDM). However, the highly competitive environment is critical because of more cost-effective projects, which is why Iran needs to strike a balance between sustainable development and profitability for projects. In this study, identifying and ranking of major challenges of leading small and medium industries have been studied. It also uses the failures mode and effect analysis (FMEA) technique and survey experts and managers of small and medium industries in the province recognized and decision model using several branches. VIKOR was ranked as the most important challenge. The results show that exchange rate volatility has been the highest priority, so the first challenge has been identified. Similarly, the political boycott and the rise in the cost of production and cost of product manufacturing enterprises were identified as the next challenges.

Urban form as its compactness, complexity and centrality is increasingly being recognized by researchers for its potential role in the decreasing of CO2 emissions and sustainable urban development. The objective of this study is to quantify the relationship between CO2 emission and urban form, using panel data analysis for Iran's 15 cities from 2001 to 2015. Therefore, a series of urban form indicators were selected which were measured by applying spatial landscape metrics to remotely sensed data. The results of the study expressed a positive correlation between CO2 emission levels and the growth of urban areas. In addition, increased urban complexity represented a positive relationship with CO2 emissions and conversely, increased urban compactness led to reductions in carbon dioxide emissions. The findings of this research indicate that measures to make existing cities in northern Iran more compact may in fact help to decrease the CO2 emissions level, just as increasing fragmentation or increased complexity with respect to urban form may contribute to increase carbon dioxide emissions. Urban planners and decision makers should consider urban form to obtain significant reduction in CO2 emissions which subsequently leads to low carbon cities development in Iran.

Ecosystems have a huge impact on social systems through providing diverse services. Sustainable management of social and ecological systems requires the quantification of spatial relationships between the supply, demand, and use of these ecosystem services. The main purpose of this paper was to provide a framework addressing all the complicated relationships of ecosystem services between ecological and social systems. Sustainable management cannot be achieved without considering these complex relationships. To simplify these complexities, management priorities must be identified. In this study, spatial changes of supply, use, and demand of ecosystem services and their main drivers were investigated. A Public Participation Geographic Information System was used to map the supply, demand and use of 19 ecosystem services in semiarid landscapes of Iran. Multi Criteria Decision Making methods were also used to link ecosystem services to social well-being. The main drivers of tradeoffs between supply, use, and demand of ecosystem services were determined using General Linear Method. The results showed that there was a synergy between supply, demand and use of ecosystem services in highlands. The deficit zones of ecosystem services were concentrated in lowlands. Provisioning services were the most important services for social well-being. The framework presented in this paper revealed all the complex relationships that the environmental management is faced with in ecosystem and social systems. Simplifying integrated relationships in both ecosystems (supply) and social systems (demand and use) helps sustainable management of ecosystems under environmental and social changes.

In recent decades, determining the most appropriate energy producers in the power industry is considered as a strategic factor in moving toward sustainable development. In this paper, energy producers have been assessed by a five-dimensional approach to sustainability as a very strong representation of the energy sustainability. These five comprehensive aspects are environmental, social, economic, technical, and institutional. To rank the energy producers and to overcome the ambiguity of linguistic values of experts' subjective preferences, a revised Grey Relational Analysis (GRA) technique based on the grey numbers is used. To show the performance of the five-dimensional approach, and to verify the developed approach, a case study on Iran's power industry is considered. For this purpose, a number of exploratory interviews were conducted with the experts of the Renewable Energy Organization of Iran (SUNA) and with some academic specialists, and the main factors affecting sustainability assessment of energy producers were identified. To validate the capability of the proposed model, results were compared with the outcome of the GRA method. The results demonstrate the practicality and feasibility of research and indicate that natural gas, solar energy, and wind power are ranked first to third, respectively.

Shadegan International Wetland (SIW) is a unique natural ecosystem with great national and international significance, designated under Ramsar Convention. Located in southern part of Iran, this wetland serves many functions. Among them the rich biodiversity, ecological, hydrological, and economic functions are the most important. Despite the great opportunities for sustainable development of this wetland, it is currently under serious threats from a diverse range of non-sustainable activities. Underestimating SIW’s non-market values in development decisions is a major reason for the conversion and excessive depletion of its resources. The aim of this study was therefore to estimate the economic benefit of SIW as a very useful instrument to reflect the values of this unique ecosystem to society members. A choice experiment (CE) survey was undertaken to estimate the value of different nonmarket attributes of SIW. In addition to the overall model, users and nonusers preferences were also estimated. Random parameter logit (RPL) model was employed to derive the marginal value of the respondents for different attributes of the nonmarket values of SIW. Results indicated the respondents’ positive preferences towards better conservation of SIW.
