About the Doughnut Portrait Visualiser & Data Hub

 Welcome to Doughnut Economics Action Lab’s (DEAL’s) Doughnut Data Portraits Visualiser & Data Hub, an online and interactive tool that allows users to create their own place-based Doughnut diagrams, based on locally relevant, data-led information.

Access the Doughnut Data Portraits Visualiser & Data Hub

In this first version of the Visualiser & Data Hub, users can add indicators that they have collected following the Doughnut Data Portrait methodology, which offers an approach to compile place-based targets and indicators within 44 dimensions grouped across four crucial ‘lenses’ that arise from combining two domains (social and ecological) and two scales (local and global).

The data entered by users is visualised in a basic Doughnut diagram, which can be saved as an image or as an editable graphic. Users can also explore the indicators and Doughnut diagrams of other public Portrait initiatives on the platform, and, crucially, choose to make their own work visible for others to learn from.
