Economic Convergence of Nations Revealed in GapMinder Data

Swedish public health professor Hans Rosling uses time series data to show how the world is no longer a set of developed and developing countries. There are middle income nations that have made great strides in public health and life expectancy using inexpensive technology such as vaccines.

This presentation, delivered at the U.S. State Department is part of the GapMinder series, which uses innovative data presentation to reveal long-term trends. Interesting stuff, and Rosling’s a good speaker.
