Hans Rosling has given the world inspiring, creative and important insights into the world’s data and truths. Much of his work focuses on understanding progress humans have made in global development. It also helps put the human predicament in perspective.
You may find many of Dr. Rosling’s videos on his website Gapminder and at this TED website.
Population Matters has also produced its own list of facts, Population Factfulness, that challenges a number of Rosling’s conclusions.
You may find a personal perspective from Population Matters Director, Robin Maynard, here.
