The importance of urban green areas in the quality of life for inhabitants has become more evident than ever due to reduced human contact with nature. Urban green areas must be accessible and usable for all groups of people, including different gender and socio-economic groups. However, there are tensions between equal use and access to urban green areas. The present study evaluates gender justice in the use of urban parks in different socio-economic areas of Tabriz city (Iran). The information required for this study has been collected by using 384 questionnaires based on Cochran's formula. Questionnaires were distributed randomly in different areas of Tabriz. The questions were categorized according to four factors which have a direct bearing on green space usage: accessibility, physical infrastructure, security, and culture. Data have been analysed based on hot spot analysis and the Moran index in ArcGIS software. The results show no significant differences between men and women in the use of urban parks in Tabriz. Significant differences were observed in the use of green spaces when upper and lower socio-economic areas are compared in that high-income areas enjoy better equipped and usable green spaces.
