Abstract:

 Open-green spaces have many benefits for cities and city dwellers and are known as an integral part of sustainability. The importance of open-green areas, which have many benefits in terms of environmental, social, economic, and human health, is among the important issues that have been constantly emphasized since ancient times. Urban open-green spaces are public spaces that can be used by everyone and where people from different walks of life can come together and spend time together. These areas also strengthen human-nature interaction thanks to their different functions and features. A systematic approach is required to reflect all these contributions to urban spaces. Many targets and standards have been developed in this regard both in the world and in Turkey. For the green space standards in Turkey, the 10 m²person criteria specified in the Spatial Plans Construction Regulation established within the scope of the Zoning Law is taken into account. However, as a result of population growth, the need for green space also increases and it is not possible to provide the necessary parallel relationship between the two. The study, it is aimed to emphasize spatial inequality in terms of the amount of green space and population, by evaluating the distribution of green areas in the neighborhoods of Ankara Yenimahalle district with population data. The distribution of the green areas in the district and the neighborhood populations were compared and evaluated. In the study, in which the amount of green areas per capita was calculated, it was concluded that the green areas in the district were generally insufficient. It has been determined that the green areas per capita in only three neighborhoods are higher than the regulation standard.

 Açık-yeşil alanlar kentler ve kentte yaşayanlar için birçok açıdan faydası bulunmakta ve sürdürülebilirliğin ayrılmaz bir parçası olarak bilinmektedir. Çevresel, sosyal, ekonomik ve insan sağlığı açısından birçok faydası olan açık-yeşil alanların önemi Antik çağlardan günümüze kadar sürekli olarak vurgulanan önemli konular arasındadır. Kentsel açık-yeşil alanlar herkes tarafından kullanılabilen, farklı kesimden insanların bir araya gelerek birlikte vakit geçirebildikleri kamusal alanlardan birisidir. Bu alanlar aynı zamanda sahip oldukları farklı işlev ve özellikleri sayesinde insan-doğa etkileşimini de güçlendirmektedir. Tüm bu katkıların kentsel mekânlara yansıtılması için sistematik bir yaklaşımın olması gerekmektedir. Bu konuda hem Dünyada hem de Türkiyede birçok hedef ve standart geliştirilmiştir. Türkiyede yeşil alan standartları için, İmar Kanunu kapsamında oluşturulan Mekânsal Planlar Yapım Yönetmeliğinde belirtilen 10 m²kişi ölçütü dikkate alınmaktadır. Fakat nüfus artışı sonucunda yeşil alan ihtiyacı da artmakta ve ikisi arasında olması gereken paralel ilişkinin sağlanması mümkün olmamaktadır. Çalışmada, Ankara Yenimahalle ilçesi mahallelerinde yeşil alan dağılımları, nüfus verileri ile değerlendirilerek, mekânsal eşitsizlik yeşil alan miktarı ve nüfus kapsamında vurgulamak amaçlanmaktadır. İlçede bulunan yeşil alanların dağılımları ve mahalle nüfusları ile karşılaştırılarak değerlendirilmiştir. Kişi başına düşen yeşil alan miktarlarının hesaplandığı çalışmada, genel olarak ilçede yeşil alanların yetersiz olduğu soncuna ulaşılmıştır. Sadece üç mahallede kişi başına düşen yeşil alanların yönetmelik standardından fazla olduğu tespit edilmiştir.
