Rosling is the educator that used statistics to show the world as a better place than ever before in the book Factfulness and his lively and pedagogical lectures that made him world famous.

But what would Rosling say about the world today?

“It is never too late to give up, so we might as well do that another time.”
–Hans Rosling
