Abstract: This paper discusses the methods of public participation in the urban regeneration of deteriorated areas, in which a participatory intervention is designed according to the initial scope of capacity building. It examines a variety of challenges and shortcomings with various features, which can be highlighted in deteriorated urban areas in relation to past and present interventions. Given the level of the problems, prioritising their features can be said to play an integral role in the intervention. This study seeks to demonstrate an intervention model based on a participatory regeneration that can strengthen the social infrastructure of society to meet the challenges of their neighbourhoods. A qualitative methodology was used for this study. The results of the study show that a variety of problems can contribute to various participatory interventions and principles in deteriorated urban areas. In addition, the amount of public participation in this process can play a key role in slowing down the deterioration cycle.
