Buy local, or bye bye local. Food items from local suppliers are more sustainable and very flavourful. But are all ingredients in your product actually sourced from the area? In this edition of Data Dilemmas, we look at food-related data.

An increasing number of organisations seek to offer their employees and customers food made with local products. This is not only delicious, but also healthy for nature and the regional economy. Eating nearby produced food helps the food transition. But to know how local a product really is, takes a lot of data. The dishes on a lunch may be locally prepared, but where do the ingredients come from? We often don’t know that very well. An agri data commons could help solve this issue. We will discuss this with various speakers, and each other.

Want to learn more about what a data commons is? Check out our Data Commons Collective initiative.

The event will be held in Dutch.

More information

Four times a year, our Amsterdam Smart City programme explores opportunities to use data and new technologies to address urban and societal challenges. The emphasis here is on responsible digitalisation.

The goal is to use data to make cities safer, cleaner and more accessible. But what happens to all the data collected? What dilemmas do we encounter when collecting (personal) data to improve the city? These questions matter to everyone: governments, knowledge institutions, businesses and civil society. The Amsterdam Smart City network is happy to explore with you what decisions are needed for responsible use of data.
