The extensive changes in the middle of the twentieth century, the modernism movement and the transformation of many rural and traditional settlements into cities and the expansion of urbanization and the phenomenon of metropolitan life, have caused children today to grow up in a man-made environment and away from the natural environment. In addition to adults, cities and urban environments have young and sensitive audiences who are much more affected by them than others. If children grow up in a disordered environment and in unfavorable conditions, if the environment cannot meet the basic needs of their presence in the city, they will grow up in a way that will manifest it in the city in the future, in terms of violence, crime, begging or in the form of social characteristics such as isolation, fear, insecurity, etc. Therefore, designing a space for children and child-centered cities and neighborhoods that interact with the ecosystem and the environment to provide experiences that children need to touch in the city and its natural environment is a requirement of urban design. With urbanization and children moving away from the environment and reducing their daily contact, the need for eco-friendly urban design that can meet the needs of children in interacting with the environment and the city is felt. Therefore, considering the points presented, first, by examining the terminology in this research and then the concepts and research proposal, theoretical texts and theories related to the child-friendly city and the eco-friendly approach have been examined. Then, indicators and components related to the subject have been extracted. Since examining existing domestic and foreign examples can be effective in achieving the research goal, in the third chapter, successful examples and domestic and foreign global experiences in the cities of Shiraz and Bam and in foreign examples in the cities of Belgium, Singapore, Hong Kong China, the Netherlands, London, Tokyo, Regensburg and San Francisco, which have the most similarities in the fields of environment, society and economy, have been examined, and finally the extracted indicators in each have been eva‎luated. Next, by assessing the status of the studied position, the required analyses have been carried out based on the indicators and components within the scope of analysis and finally an integrated analysis has been achieved using the SWOT method. In the fifth chapter, by presenting the vision, strategy and policies adopted, in presenting the best three-dimensional plan for spatial design for children with maximum consideration of the components, in achieving the presented goals, the results have been extracted in the form of a three-dimensional plan, which is a positive and effective step in realizing the child-friendly neighborhood of Baghestan Gharbi Karaj with an ecological approach. The main objective of this research is to design a child-friendly neighborhood with an ecological approach in Baghestan Gharbi Karaj, which has provided the possibility of conducting this research and plan with specific spatial and natural potentials. By examining and analyzing the answers to the key research questions; How can an ecological neighborhood be designed that is also child-friendly? What are the effective criteria and indicators in creating a child-friendly neighborhood? How can a safe and secure neighborhood be designed for children that is effective in their connection with the urban environment? And also in the area of the study area, what potential does it have to strengthen the child's connection with the city and the environment? Be responsive. In this research, an attempt has been made to examine precise quantitative and qualitative documentary studies and to use a descriptive-analytical method to achieve targeted results in increasing the child's connection with his neighborhood and environment in the Baghestan Gharbi neighborhood of Karaj, which has natural potential for preserving and connecting children with their environment. This applied research, through study methods, interviews, observation, and examination of global examples, extracts effective indicators and uses statistical and descriptive analyses with various tools to identify and use them in designing a child-friendly neighborhood with an ecological approach in the Baghestan Gharbi neighborhood. The results show that by observing the indicators of creating a play space, creating a diverse green space and protecting it, connecting with culture and the environment, increasing social interactions, ensuring safety and security, participation and education, etc., which are among the most key components obtained in this research; and by observing them in the design requirements and executive policies, a step can be taken to create an ecological child-friendly neighborhood.
