Eastern Montreal

Assessing the reach and relevance of an online mapping tool in the East End

The East End of Montreal is diverse and industrialized, has a high prevalence of poverty, and poor access to food and mobility. The R茅seau alimentaire de L鈥橢st was created to address the need for greater communication and coordination between community groups working on food issues. An online map was created to identify all food organizations operating in the territory. The R茅seau alimentaire de L鈥橢st worked with the Dawson鈥檚 Food Justice & Sustainability Hub to survey users of the map.

It was found that the map is mostly being used by community organizations.

The survey would be useful for any group wishing to assess the use of an online map.
