This paper describe the use of multiple criteria decision tools for assessing criteria and indicators designed to evaluate sustainable forest management. Three techniques called ranking, rating, and pairwise comparisons are described and used within the framework of a generic set of criteria and ...

Biodiversity conservation, as one criterion for evaluating forest sustainability, is assessed using a fuzzy analytic hierarchical framework organised around three concepts; criteria, indicators, and verifiers. Following this hierarchical framework, a biodiversity conservation index model was deve...

This paper describes the general concepts, meaning, and definitions of sustainability and proposes the use of soft methodologies, particularly fuzzy set theory, for its assessment. Basic elements and concepts of fuzzy sets are described, including membership functions and their interpretations in...


Mendoza, G.A.Prabhu, R.[Fuzzy methods for assessing criteria and indicators of sustainable forest management]Fuzzy methods for assessing criteria and indicators of sustainable forest management

This paper describes an application of multiple criteria analysis (MCA) in assessing criteria and indicators adapted for a particular forest management unit. The methods include: ranking, rating, and pairwise comparisons. These methods were used in a participatory decision-making environment wher...


Mendoza, G.A.Prabhu, R.[Development of a methodology for selecting criteria and indicators of sustainable forest management: a case study on participatory assessment]Development of a methodology for selecting criteria and indicators of sustainable forest management: a case study on participatory assessment

Criteria and indicators (C&I) for sustainable resource management were generated under a facilitated community-driven approach where villagers took active roles, not only in the generation of the indicators but also in their subsequent assessment. The general procedure followed a two-stage proces...


Mendoza, G.A.Prabhu, R.Nyirenda, R.Standa-Gunda, W.Mutimukuru, T.[A community-driven multi-criteria approach to developing indicators of sustainable resource management]A community-driven multi-criteria approach to developing indicators of sustainable resource management

Despite widespread acceptance of sustainability as the ultimate goal of forest management, perspectives about its meaning, significance, and relevant indicators may still differ. This paper examines local perspectives on sustainability, and evaluates their similarities and differences. A systemat...

Multi-Criteria Analysis (MCA) is a decision-making tool developed for complex problems. In a situation where multiple criteria are involved confusion can arise if a logical, well-structured decision-making process is not followed. Another difficulty in decision making is that reaching a general c...


Mendoza, G.A.Macoun, P.Prabhu, R.Sukadri, D.Purnomo, H.Hartanto, H.[Guidelines for applying multi-criteria analysis to the assessment of criteria and indicators]Guidelines for applying multi-criteria analysis to the assessment of criteria and indicators

Criteria and indicators (C&I) have become primary tools in implementing the principle of sustainable resource management. To carry out this principle, it is necessary to develop methodologies that can holistically and systematically generate relevant indicators for a particular forest or resource...

This paper describes an application of multi-criteria analysis (MCA) in evaluating and selecting criteria and indicators (C&I) of forest sustainability. The method was applied on a case study involving a forest area managed under the Community-Based Forest Management System of the Department of E...

This paper describes an integrated framework for assessing the sustainability og managed forests. The framework builds on Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and Multiple Criteria Decision Making (MCDM). Sustainability of forests is assessed in terms of Criteria and Indicators (C & I) as propors...
