Hunger games: Millions live in extreme poverty. We could fix that… if we wanted to.
836 million people live in extreme poverty in the world. It’s a stark figure that most people accept as an unfortunate and unavoidable situation. But is it really?
Before a dazzling backdrop of bubble graphs and projections, Swedish rockstar statistician Professor Hans Rosling shows that allowing poverty to continue is a choice, not a given, and details the steps we can take to end it in this thought-provoking documentary.
