Abstract: | One of the key goals of social forestry is to involve the poor as project beneficiaries. It is possible to measure the degree
of attainment of this goal by collecting socioeconomic data before and after project implementation. This approach cannot
be applied at the many sites where ex-ante data were never gathered. This article proposes a methodology for evaluating the
degree of inclusion of the poor in social forestry using ex-post data alone. Longitudinal analysis is approximated through
the use of ‘slow change’ socioeconomic variables and through logistic regression. The methodology is illustrated with data
on the Java Social forestry Program.
