One of the important issues facing Tehrani families is the protection of the elderly. Future demographic, family, economic, and cultural changes will add to those more complex dimensions. In this study, we seek to provide strategies to support the elderly and their families.The method of this research is a combination. In the first part of the work, through the systematic review of the aging research and statistical forecasts, the aging support scenarios are extracted and in the second part the SWOT analysis model is used to provide strategies based on each scenario. Proponents of family support for aging are "socio-cultural status" and "resources at their disposal". From the combination of these two proponents, four possible scenarios are extracted. The strategies extracted for these four scenarios were outlined in three main areas; Caregiver Support Strategies, Elderly Support Strategies, Aging Costing Strategies. Alongside these three areas, strategies have been put forward to support the role of NGOs and the integrated information system of aging.

It also studies how the use and propagation of the corporate social responsibility principle to decrease child labor in Tehran. The research method used in this study is qualitative using semi-structured interviewing techniques. Purposive sampling was used to choose key informants from activists in NGOs, experts & managers and academics. The interviews continued until reaching the point of saturation, which in this study was achieved by conducting 25 interviews. To reach the research findings, the content of the interviews was analyzed through thematic analysis. Once the analysis was done, we reached 5 comprehensive themes, consisting of two sets of quiddity and causes bearing the topic of the study. The resulted themes encompasses: transmission of child labour through three generations, defective supply chain, CSR effectiveness grounds, economic-welfare policies leading to child labour, loss of appropriate ground for acting based on CSR. The results show the nature and causes of child labour and how it relates to urban management partner corporates.
