کلید واژه: Safety hazards Risk Assessment Ahvaz secondary schools HAZID technique Strategic policies,

چکیده مقاله :

Background and objective: The most important goal of this applied research was the analysis and evaluation of the existing situation parametric indicators of safety at the level of secondary schools in Ahvaz based on the pathology approach diagnosis, planning, Policymaking, and strategic-operational management. Which strategic components are more important in the field of safety risks for Ahvaz secondary schools? Materials and methods: To determine the current status of safety indicators in Ahvaz schools, the HAZID technique was implemented. The analysis of external and internal factors affecting the status of safety indicators in Ahvaz secondary schools was done using a SWOT matrix. Results and conclusion: The final land suitability map identified three main sites, with Site 1 (44.39 hectares in the northeast) emerging as the most suitable location for a new landfill, given its favorable wind direction, distance from population centers, and stable land features. Site 2 (21.17 hectares) and Site 3 (20.6 hectares) were also identified as viable alternatives. The analysis of existing waste disposal sites revealed that the site near Azadegan Road has better suitability, while the Faqih Khorasani Boulevard site was deemed unsuitable. The results demonstrate the efficacy of GIS and AHP in facilitating informed decision-making for sustainable waste management in urban areas.
