Purpose: The use of solar energy has long been human interest. Some countries are trying to gradually replace fossil energy with solar energy because of special benefits such as lack of environmental pollution, frequency, immortality, and sustainable access. The potential of solar energy provides a good platform for the development of marginal villages and regions that are deployed away from urban centers or rural population centers. However, in some countries, despite the favorable weather conditions, for various reasons, the use of solar energy technology is still not commensurate with the potentials. Design/Methodology/Approach: This research adopted a descriptive-analytical method to explain the potentials of solar energy technology for sustainable rural development in the study area on 400 randomized samples. The potential and process of developing and expanding solar energy technology, as an effective factor, was determined by 34 items under indicators such as education and awareness-raising, knowledge and skills, trust-building, capacity building, participation, and partnership in investment. The dependent research variable was also measured through 106 items in ecological, socioeconomic, and physical dimensions of settlement development. Findings: The results suggested that the utilization of solar energy technology was effective in promoting sustainable development indicators of rural settlements in the study area. Hence, it is suggested to pay further attention to improving training and raising awareness as well as building support for villagers to increase the level of employment, participation, and investment in the utilization of solar energy technology.

Purpose- One of the key challenges in the border areas of Sistan is the existence of different ethnic groups and nationalities with different sense of place and identity belonging. The ethnic and national differences has created a turbulent and chaotic landscape in border villages of Sistan and caused a lot of damages to the sense of place and identity in affected areas. Accordingly, the aim of this study was to determine the relationship between the Afghans and the sense of place in the border villages of Sistan. Design/methodology/approach- The research method is descriptive -analytical and is based on library research and survey. The sample consisted of 31 villages inhabited by Afghans with 3669 households. A sample of 347 households were selected using Cochran's formula and were interviewed based on random sampling. The data were analyzed using the Spearman correlation coefficient in SPSS Software. Findings- The results of the test show that there is a significant relationship between the number of Afghan residents and sense of place in the studied area with a confidence level of 99 percent, so that by increasing Afghan households, sense of place decreases in the rural area and by reducing households in the rural area, the sense of place will increase. According to the results, it can be expressed that informal settlement of Afghans caused a reduction of sense of place in border villages of Sistan. Research limitations/implications- One of the restrictions on the way of the research can be lack of accurate statistics on the informal settlers living in the border villages of Sistan. Among the strategies that can be offered to improve regional identity, is a complete identification of the illegal migrants, the setting of firm rules for their control, and the monitoring of the security agencies on immigration. Practical implications- In order to solve this problem, the exact number of immigrants (illegal) settled in the area should be counted and according to law, they should be either granted citizenship or returned to Afghanistan. In the meantime, the best way is to grant citizenship to immigrants because evidence suggests that the majority of refugees return to their country after being fired from Iran. Accordingly, it is possible to confirm Afghan refugees by granting Iranian citizenship, national identity, and immigration in the destination country (Iran). Originality/value- So far, no attention to the sense of place of cross-border migrants (Afghans) to Iran, especially in border villages. Nevertheless, the present study has authenticity and practical value. Users of the results of this research are rural and regional planners, provincial government of Sistan and Baluchistan and its departments and agencies under the Department of Afghan citizens in the country.

Purpose: Evaluation of zoonotic diseases have existed since the beginning of human life on earth, but in recent decades it has become much more important. Today, zoonotic diseases not only important in health area, but also in international economics and politics are also special place are important. the main objective of the present article is to assess the impact of the physical quality livestock building on the development of human and animal health in rural areas. Methodology: In this regard, a survey method has been used. After applying the Cochran formula, 382 questionnaires were prepared in the form of a form and a questionnaire. case study is rural regions of Firouzeh county. For measure the research hypotheses, Binomial test and Linear Regression and TOPSIS has been used. Therefore, the research method is descriptive and analytical. Results: Binomial test results show that the villages are unfavorable in terms of physical quality of livestock buildings. Linear regression results show that increased physical quality of livestock buildings has a direct impact on the development of livestock and human health. Also according to TOPSIS, Taghiabad village, Nayerabad and Shorab are ranked first to third in terms of the high quality of livestock buildings. Practical solutions: Provide trifle and long term loans to ranchers, making changes to the old buildings keeping the livestock according to the quality standards of the livestock building, having a regular program for washing and cleaning the livestock building, more systematic monitoring of health centers by collecting livestock excrements and preventing the accumulation of waste at public passages are suggestions that can help improve the quality of livestock building and human health. Significance of the Study: Regarding the approach to physical quality and its impact on the development of human health and livestock in rural areas and in terms of the area studied, this research has been the first research on the health of animals and humans in rural areas (Firouzeh villages).
