چکیده

The metropolis of Ahvaz, due to its geographical location, specific climatic conditions, and socio-economic challenges, is exposed to numerous pressures and stresses. In this context, social resilience, as the capacity of a community to adapt, learn, and recover in the face of these challenges, plays a key role in improving quality of life and enhancing citizen interactions.This study aims to explain the social dimensions of resilience and its role in strengthening social interactions in urban open spaces of Ahvaz. The research method adopted is mixed (qualitative-quantitative).The findings indicate that dimensions such as social capital, citizen participation, social cohesion, sense of place attachment, and collective creativity are key components of social resilience, which, if properly planned within urban open spaces, can act as catalysts for positive and sustainable citizen interactions.Finally, strategies are presented to operationalize these dimensions in the design and management of public spaces in Ahvaz
