Impact
How we keep up with food system progress.
How are we measuring impact?
Bristol Good Food 2030 (BGF2030) is an ambitious project with stakeholders across different sectors in the city.
The BGF2030 One City Framework for Action outlines food goals for 2030, supported by Key Performance Indicators provided by partners to monitor progress.
Additionally, action plans targeting specific themes aim to enact changes by 2023-24. Short Term Indicators will be used to track progress and features in the 2023 Progress Report.
These indicators offer insight into Bristol’s progress towards food system transformation.
