THE FOOD SYSTEM DASHBOARD IS A COMPREHENSIVE TOOL TO MEASURE OUR LOCAL FOOD SYSTEM.
The Dashboard is a collection of over 250 indicators measuring the health, affordability, sustainability, and fairness of our local food system. The Dashboard assists us in telling an important narrative about how our food system is doing both locally and regionally, as our indicators span across Los Angeles as a City, County, and a Foodshed, which comprises 10 counties in Southern California.
The first version of the Food System Dashboard was created in 2013, and we have continued to update the data from dozens of databases and reports, with big updates in 2017 and 2020. As a shared measurement tool, the Dashboard serves to empower our network with knowledge about our food system with hard data placed into the context of grassroots efforts. With equity at its core, the Dashboard aims to make data accessible to all who want it.
Each of our values has both quantitative data, which includes statistics and trends, and qualitative data, which includes expert commentaries, case studies, and interviews. To view and download this information, view each of our value pages.
