Economic Justice Platform
The Economic Justice Platform is our strategy for policy work at Inclusive Action. The platform lays out our vision and commitments to creating equitable local economies through policy and research interventions. At Inclusive Action, we are committed to achieving economic justice by: removing barriers and red tape that prevent communities from accessing public services; advocating for justice-oriented investments that empower underinvested communities; and creating transparent budgets and government for communities to participate in public processes and hold our leaders to account.
Learn more about the platform in this blog, and check out the full, detailed platform here.
We’re looking for partners, allies, and collaborators to come with us on this journey — reach out to us if you're interested!
Los Angeles Street Vendor Campaign

Inclusive Action is part of the steering committee moving forward the effort for an inclusive permit system structured to help low-income entrepreneurs build strong businesses and take care of their families.
Adopt-a-Lot
A collaboration with Kounkuey Design Initiative (KDI), Adopt-a-Lot, is an effort to activate vacant lots in low-income, park-poor communities across Los Angeles. We help to turn these lots over to the community, and use participatory practices to transform them with the community into centers of vibrant and healthy activity.
Research Fellows
Each year, Inclusive Action convenes a cohort of research fellows to help guide the next generation of critical planners and policy makers. Each of the fellows conducts their own research under the guidance of Inclusive Action staff and is provided with trainings in pertinent skills to advance their career.
