The type of this research is: inductive, practical- benefit, descriptive-analytic, which was done by using below analytic methods: A Stakeholders analysis(using power- benefit matrix analysis. b-1) Descriptive- statistic analysis. b-2)Fridman test,b-3) Spearman rank correlation in the spss software environment. C) Content analysis The measures and indicators valuation of e- empowerment process the above analysis led to e- participation level evaluation in Isfahan’s urban decline, and it’s adapted pattern in above districts was produced. The most important findings from the analysis, illustrates that e- empowerment in Isfahan urban declines is a five- step cyclic process, consist of e- education, e-learning, awareness, e-consulting and involving, in cybernetic space context. The main users in this process, are, resident users, responsible, technical expert, support expert, coach, facilitator. The above main users do these five processes in a continues following cycle, in turn: (1) joining local groups and forming of social networks in cyberspace; (2) joining in the program and process of electronic empowerment, (3) Performing the steps of electronic empowerment (including training, learning and skills acquisition, awareness, interaction, demanding and accountability), (4) Discussing about shortcomings and process modification (upgrading and improving the electronic empowerment mechanism) (5) Decision-making is done with the cooperation and participation of residents and officials (decision-makers) in order to promote participation in urban regeneration of areas with urban decline in Isfahan.
