From Data Portrait to Place | Untold Stories from the Oxfordshire Doughnut
A lunch-time #PowerHour on the Oxfordshire Doughnut | exploring untold stories & where we might go next...
As Kate Raworth and Andrew Fanning publish their latest Global Portrait, we invite you to join us to explore two questions:
“Is Oxfordshire home to thriving people in a thriving place, while respecting the wellbeing of all people and the whole planet?”.
And where to next for Oxfordshire's currently 'static' preliminary Data Portrait of Place.
Nearly a year after Oxfordshire’s first Data Portrait of Place, we’re going beneath the averages: the untold stories, the gaps that persist, and the links between local lives and global impacts.
We’ll unpack the narratives behind the metrics, explore practical implications, and, crucially, ask the room: what have we learned, and what might we do with this new-found understanding of place?
Who’s this for: Open to all but especially relevant to Oxfordshire locals working at the intersection social and environmental change. We welcome civil society groups, academics, policy officers, residents - anyone keen to turn insight into useful next steps.
What to expect:
- The data, briefly: untold stories and why they matter.
- Implications: where this points for Oxfordshire.
- From static to story — “What next?” for the Preliminary Oxfordshire Doughnut as a communications tool: how to move beyond a static graphic into a living and evolving Doughnut to guide mindset shift, new decision making, and local action?

Founder of Make It Good which is dedicated to accelerating regenerative futures. Most recently part of the Oxfordshire Doughnut Project Team. Funded by Oxfordshire County Council and hosted by Aspire, the project seeks to accelerate understanding of Doughnut Economics in application across three core work streams - developing a preliminary data portrait as a springboard for engagement, understanding how to move from impact assessment to doughnut-informed Decision Making Wheel, and to consider how to begin to apply these tools to strategic economic planning in Oxfordshire.

Hi, I've have recently completed my MSc Ecological Economics in Leeds. Since then I have been the Oxfordshire Doughnut Project Data Lead across the Four Lenses for the Preliminary Data Portrait: • Global Ecological Lens: based on planetary boundaries model, downscaling data to county or regional levels and applying and improving on best practice methodologies. • Global Social: designed a data methodology applying material footprinting data to Global Social dimensions (aligned with Sustainable Development Goals) to build a coherent narrative around local consumption and global social impact. • Local Social and Ecological: supervising and producing calculations across all dimensions and their visualisations. Looking forward to see where this doughnut goes and what opportunities for engagement arise from it!
