The increasing trend of destruction of natural resources, soil erosion and the occurrence of destructive floods in the country, despite extensive watershed management measures during the past four decades, has increased the need to evaluate the effects of these plans and access statistics and information during the exploitation period. The present research has evaluated the effects of watershed management projects on eight global development indicators in the Natanz Urban, Hunejan Shahreza, Qale Qadam Semirom and Sibak Fereidounshahr watersheds. In this regard, after examining previous sources and researches, regarding the collection of information on watershed management plans and natural resources at the level of the mentioned watersheds in the period before and after implementation during the 20-year period from 1375 to 1395 in the form of questionnaires, face-to-face interviews, gathering information from relevant organizations and using satellite images, aerial photos and detailed reports of each watershed have been done; The results of the survey have shown that the implementation of watershed management projects in general has a positive effect on global development indicators and has increased the level of these indicators in such a way that these mechanisms have improved. |
