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

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...
