Materials and Methods: The present study was performed with a qualitative approach using content analysis by the conventional method in Mazandaran province. The data were collected through in depth semi structured interviews with 34 participants through a purposeful sampling method and analyzed simultaneously.

Results: From data analysis, 3 main themes including 1) beliefs and attitudes with 3 sub-themes of perceived threat, perceived fear and anxiety, and perceived self-efficacy, 2) the main theme of drivers/facilitators with 9 sub-themes of informing, culture building and networking, capacity building/ jihadi and voluntary actions, inter-sectoral coordination, social trust, social responsibility, social resilience, compensatory/financial policies of the government and strategies for changing processes and policies in crisis management, and 3) and the main theme of barriers and challenges of community participation with 5 sub-themes of psychological challenges, social/cultural challenges, economic challenges, health challenges and management challenges is extracted.
