Summary:
Statistician Hans Rosling is one of the world's most sought-after public speakers. In this film, timed to coincide with the launch of new development goals at the United Nations Summit, he offers real hope for an end to global poverty. Rosling explains how there are still one billion people around the world living in extreme poverty - but that number has halved since the UN last set development goals 15 years ago. Brought to life by the revolutionary holographic projection system Musion, this is a fascinating as-live studio show that charts where we've come from, where we are now, and where we're heading when it comes to eradicating extreme poverty.
