Using the 'doughnut economics' framework established by Kate Raworth to identify a safe and just operating space for humanity, this report presents an initial assessment of the ‘state of the Doughnut’ in Cornwall in 2020. The report provides a baseline from which to evaluate progress towards achieving a social foundation that meets human needs while also reducing environmental pressures. By developing a dataset that can be regularly revisited to assess progress this assessment has longer-term potential to inform reporting to the Cornwall and Isles of Scilly Leadership Board on ecological and social trends. The report aims to assist Cornwall Council and other key stakeholders to identify appropriate indicators that can be used to track progress across the wider context in which their decision-making wheel is used. By assessing available data and identifying gaps, this ‘state of the Doughnut’ report is designed to provide a benchmark to help sustainable development in Cornwall. Where available, we also include data for the Isles of Scilly.
