Amaç: Küresel pandeminin yarattığı bilinmezlik ve endişe dünya çapında acil ve katı tedbirler alınmasını gerekli kılmıştır. Toplumsal boyutu nedeniyle alışık olunan yaşam düzeninin yerini kısıtlamalar almıştır. İnsanların alışık olmadıkları şekilde kısıtlandıkları bu şartlar altında beden ve ruh sağlığını korumak önemli olmuştur. Beden ve ruh sağlığını korumak, onu geliştirmek için en değerli varlık doğadır. Doğanın kentlerdeki yansıması ise yeşil alanlardır. Bu dönemdeki kısıtlamalar yeşil alanlarda da uygulanmıştır. Öte yandan bu kısıtlamalar, yeşil alanların kentlilerin yaşamlarındaki önemini daha güçlü göstermiştir. Bu çalışmada; İstanbul’da yaşayan insanların, Kovid-19 “pandemisi öncesi”, yoğun tedbirlerin uygulandığı “tam kapanma süreci”, kısıtlamaların kalktığı "normalleşme süreci" ve “günümüz” aktif yeşil alan kullanımına ilişkin değerlendirmeleri tespit etmek amaçlanmıştır. Böylece pandeminin kısıtlı şartları ile pandeminin üzerinden uzun bir süre geçip, kısıtlanma psikolojisi ve tedirginlikler atlatıldıktan sonrası arasında insanların algı değişimi tespit edilebilmiştir.
Materyal ve Yöntem: Çalışma alanı olarak Türkiye’nin en kalabalık kenti İstanbul seçilmiştir. Çalışmada standart anket yöntemi uygulanmıştır. Anketler, “Google Form” platformu üzerinden çevrimiçi olarak hazırlanmış ve hazırlanan anketlerin kullanıcılara dağıtımı çeşitli sosyal ağlar (Instagram ve Facebook) ve iletişim kanalları (WhatsApp ve E-posta) üzerinden kartopu yaklaşımı ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Yanıtlar, anonim olarak kabul edilmiştir. Anket, toplamda 20 sorudan oluşmuş olup bu sorular 6 kategoride hazırlanmıştır.
Araştırma Bulguları: Araştırmaya göre; aktif yeşil alanlarda yürüyüş yapılabilmesi her dönemde en çok önemsenen aktivite olmuştur.
Günümüzde bu alanlara yakın olmak ve açık alanda olabilmek önemli görülmüştür. Sosyal mesafe önemlidir fakat katılımcılara göre; sosyalleşmeye engel oluşturmamaktadır. Katılımcılar pandemi sürecinde açık yeşil alanda vakit geçirmeyi özlediklerini belirtmişlerdir. Katılımcıların çoğu, pandeminin tekrarlanması halinde açık yeşil alanların kapatılmaması gerektiğini ifade etmiştir.
Sonuç: Kovid-19 pandemisi, yaşattığı tüm olumsuzluklara rağmen; kent yöneticileri için kentli ihtiyaçlarını yeniden değerlendirmek noktasında fırsattır. Bu çalışmanın kentlilerin beklenti, istek ve değerlendirmelerini derlemek ve analiz etmek yolu ile kent yöneticilerine yardımcı olacağı düşünülmektedir.

Objective: The uncertainty and anxiety caused by the global pandemic made it necessary to take urgent and strict measures worldwide. Due to its social dimension, restrictions have replaced the usual living order. Under these conditions, where people are restricted in ways they are not used to, it has been important to protect their physical and mental health. The most valuable asset for protecting and improving physical and mental health is nature. The reflection of nature in cities is green spaces. Green spaces have also been affected by restrictions. On the other hand, these restrictions have shown the importance of green spaces in the lives of urbanites more strongly. In this study it was aimed to determine the evaluations of people living in Istanbul regarding the use of active green spaces "before the Covid-19 pandemic", during the "full lockdown process" when intensive measures were implemented, during the "normalization process" when restrictions were lifted and "today". Thus, the change in people's perception could be detected between the limited conditions of the pandemic and after a long period of time passed after the pandemic and the psychology of restriction and anxiety were overcome.
Materials and Methods: Istanbul, the most populous city in Turkiye, was selected as the study area. A standardized survey method was applied in the study. The questionnaires were prepared online through the "Google Form" platform and the distribution of the prepared questionnaires to the users was carried out with a snowball approach through various social networks (Instagram and Facebook) and communication channels (WhatsApp and e-mail). Responses were considered anonymous. The questionnaire consisted of 20 questions in total and these questions were prepared in 6 categories.
Results: According to the findings, walking in active green areas has been the most important activity in every period. Today, being close to these areas and being in an open space are considered important. Social distance is important, but according to the participants; it does not prevent socialization. Participants stated that they missed spending time in open green spaces during the pandemic. Most of the participants stated that open green areas should not be closed if the pandemic recurs.
Conclusion: Despite all the negativities caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, it is an opportunity for city managers to re-evaluate urban needs. It is thought that this study will help city managers by compiling and analyzing the expectations, requests and evaluations of urbanites.
