Sustainable Livelihoods is one of the new analytical approaches to rural development that has been considered in recent years for rural development and poverty alleviation. The purpose of this study is to analyze the stability of rural livelihood in Saqez city. In order to determine the villages studied, villages were first divided into 5 groups of population and then, based on the number of villages in each population class, the number of villages in each class was determined. In total, 30 villages were selected as samples. Using the Cochran formula, 300 families were selected as the sample size and completed the questionnaire. The results of descriptive findings and one-sample T-test show that the sustainability of livelihood in all aspects of sustainable livelihoods is low in the study area. Also, the results of correlation and regression analysis show that there is a direct and meaningful relationship between the components of sustainable livelihoods, and among these components, economic and physical assets have an impact on the sustainable livelihoods of the residents. Also, the results of ANOVA and Tukey's test show that there is a significant difference between the departments of Saqez City in terms of sustainability of livelihood and the central section in terms of livelihoods sustainability has a more favorable situation to other sectors.

In achieving sustainable livelihoods in rural areas, the need for accurate and complete identification of factors affecting the process of formation and development of rural areas is necessary. In this regard, identification and evaluation of criteria and indicators of sustainable rural livelihoods can be promising. In this study, it has been tried to identify and evaluate the criteria and indicators of rural sustainable livelihood in the country through a comprehensive review of the library resources and existing records. For this purpose, factors influencing rural sustainable livelihood were formulated in the form of a group of criteria, and indicators for each criterion. In the next step by using the Delphi method and using normalized importance coefficient, the indices were screened. Based on the results, the economic criterion group with the highest Normalized Importance coefficient (0.338) was identified as the most important criterion group. Two income and cost and water resources criteria with normalized importance coefficient 0.720 and 0.070 are more important than the other criteria, and then the employment and health of the society criteria are at the next levels. Among the indicators of sustainable livelihoods, household income index is ranked first with the normalized importance coefficient 0.0084. And two indicators of assets and household expenses are ranked second with the same importance coefficient (0.0081).
