Abstract

The occurrence of floods as a result of illegal construction and the influx of people to areas at hazard cause the emergence and creation of catastrophic human and economic crises and as a major challenge in the direction of achieving sustainable development of local communities (including the city of Konarak) which makes it necessary to know the methods of achieving vulnerability reduction patterns, including improving resilience. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to identification and evaluation of indicators influencing the resilience of flood-stricken communities (Konarak city). This study is an applied research, which uses descriptive-analytical method to identify and measure dimensions and components resilience of Konarak city. The sample size was estimated using Cochran’s formula of 371 households in four neighborhoods of Shomal nirogah gazi, Surak, Nazarabad and Jonoob shahr of Konarak city. To carry out the research, first by using library resources, indicators and factors affecting social, economic, institutional, physical, environmental, sanitary and mental health were identified, and then the field methods and questionnaire were used to collect the required information and data. In order to analyze the data, the coefficient of multiple correlations such as multiple regression analyses and path analysis were used. The results showed that the social dimension has the highest score with 48.70 and the mental health dimension has the lowest score with 39.12, and Konark city is in an unfavorable situation with a total score of 37.26. The highest level of resilience is related to the neighborhoods Shomal nirogah gazi and Surak with 40.95 and 37.81%, respectively, and the lowest level of resilience is for the neighborhoods Nazarabad and Jonoob shahr with 34.22 and 36.05%, respectively. Also, the results of path analysis of resilience show that in relation to the total score of direct and indirect effects, the social dimension with (0.99) had the most impact and the health dimension with (0.17) had the least impact on the resilience of the city of Konarak.
