Yet another great talk from SWEDISH (correction) researcher Hans Rosling (ex Matthew Hurst). He brings to life global statistics on poverty and health, and makes the case that the “seemingly impossible is possible”—even when confronted with the problems in Africa. Worth a watch if you have 20 minutes.
(You may wonder what I’m doing in the middle of a work day watching a 20-minute video on global development… Fact is, I’m roaming the Net trying to figure out what I’m going to be writing about now that I’m back at BusinessWeek…)
