ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Hans Rosling - Global health expert; data visionary
In Hans Rosling’s hands, data sings. Global trends in health and economics come to vivid life. And the big picture of global development—with some surprisingly good news—snaps into sharp focus.

Why you should listen

Even the most worldly and well-traveled among us have had their perspectives shifted by Hans Rosling. A professor of global health at Sweden's Karolinska Institute, his work focused on dispelling common myths about the so-called developing world, which (as he pointed out) is no longer worlds away from the West. In fact, most of the Third World is on the same trajectory toward health and prosperity, and many countries are moving twice as fast as the west did.

What set Rosling apart wasn't just his apt observations of broad social and economic trends, but the stunning way he presented them. Guaranteed: You've never seen data presented like this. A presentation that tracks global health and poverty trends should be, in a word: boring. But in Rosling's hands, data sings. Trends come to life. And the big picture — usually hazy at best — snaps into sharp focus.

Rosling's presentations were grounded in solid statistics (often drawn from United Nations and World Bank data), illustrated by the visualization software he developed. The animations transform development statistics into moving bubbles and flowing curves that make global trends clear, intuitive and even playful. During his legendary presentations, Rosling took this one step farther, narrating the animations with a sportscaster's flair.

Rosling developed the breakthrough software behind his visualizations through his nonprofit Gapminder, founded with his son and daughter-in-law. The free software — which can be loaded with any data — was purchased by Google in March 2007. (Rosling met the Google founders at TED.)

Rosling began his wide-ranging career as a physician, spending many years in rural Africa tracking a rare paralytic disease (which he named konzo) and discovering its cause: hunger and badly processed cassava. He co-founded Médecins sans Frontièrs (Doctors without Borders) Sweden, wrote a textbook on global health, and as a professor at the Karolinska Institut in Stockholm initiated key international research collaborations. He's also personally argued with many heads of state, including Fidel Castro.

Hans Rosling passed away in February 2017. He is greatly missed.

4000
kao što je to bilo nekad, tisućama godina.
02:10
And I will do that
42
115000
2000
Ja ću to učiniti tako
02:12
by tryingtežak to predictpredvidjeti preciselyprecizno
43
117000
3000
da pokušam precizno predvidjeti

što je on mislio pod slobodom, i slobodom za koga.
03:41
And we will think about that
75
206000
2000
Razmislimo o tome
03:43
when we look at the wideršire pictureslika of the worldsvijet in 1858.
76

kada gledamo širu sliku svijeta u 1858-oj.

05:39
ActuallyZapravo if we go back into the historicalpovijesni recordsnimiti,
115
324000
2000
Ako se vratimo u povijest,
05:41
there was a time hundredsstotine of yearsgodina agoprije

06:33
Still underpod foreignstrana dominationdominacija, and withoutbez sovereigntysuverenitet,
137
378000
3000
Još uvijek pod stranom dominacijom, bez suvereniteta,
06:36
IndiaIndija and ChinaKina are down in the cornerugao.
138
381000
2000
Indija i Kina su dolje u kutu.
06:38
Not much has happeneddogodilo.

383000
2000
Nije se puno toga promijenilo.
06:40
They have grownodrastao theirnjihov populationpopulacija but not much more.
140
385000
2000
Populacija im je narasla, ali to je sve.
06:42
In the 1930's„s now, you can see
141
387000
2000
U 1930-tima, možete vidjeti
06:44
that JapanJapan is going to a periodrazdoblje of warrat,
142
389000
3000
da Japan prolazi kroz period rata
06:47
with lowerdonji life expectancyiščekivanje.
143
392000
2000
s nižim očekivanim trajanjem života.
06:49
And the SecondDrugi WorldSvijet WarRat was really a terribleužasan eventdogađaj,
144
394000
2000
Drugi svjetski rat je zaista tragičan događaj,
06:51
alsotakođer economicallyekonomično for JapanJapan.
145
396000
2000
također za gospodarstvo Japana.
06:53
But they did recoveroporavak quitedosta fastbrzo afterwardsposlije.
146
398000
2000
Ali oni su se vrlo brzo oporavili nakon toga.
06:55
And we are movingkreće into the newnovi worldsvijet.
147
400000
2000
I krećemo u novi svijet.
06:57
In 1947 IndiaIndija finallykonačno

1947. Indija napokon
07:00

07:02
And they could raisepodići the IndianIndijski flagZastava and becomepostati a sovereignsuveren nationnarod,

07:09
(ApplausePljesak)

07:12
In 1949 we saw the emergencepojava of the modernmoderan ChinaKina

I što se dogodilo?
07:20
What happensdogađa se in the after independencenezavisnost?
156
425000
2000
Što se događa nakon neovisnosti?
07:22
You can see that the healthzdravlje startedpočeo to improvepoboljšati.
157

2000
Vidite da se zdravlje počelo popravljati.
07:24

07:26
HealthZdravlje servicesusluge were providedako.
159
431000
2000
Pružena je zdravstvena skrb.
07:28
This is the Great LeapSkok ForwardNaprijed, when ChinaKina fellpao down.
160
433000
4000
To je bilo veliki korak naprijed, a onda je Kina pala.
07:32
It was centralsredišnji planningplaniranje by MaoMao TseTse TungTung.
161
437000
2000
To je centralno plansko gospodarstvo Mao Tse Tunga.
07:34
ChinaKina recoveredObnova. Then they said,
162
439000
2000
Zatim se Kina oporavila. Rekli su,
07:36
"NevermoreNevermore, stupidglup centralsredišnji planningplaniranje."
163
441000
2000
"Nikada više, glupo centralno planiranje."
07:38
But they wentotišao up here, and IndiaIndija was tryingtežak to followslijediti.
164
443000
3000
I otišli su tu gore, a Indija je nastojala slijediti.
07:41
And they were catchinglov up indeeddoista.
165
446000
2000
I zaista su ih dostizali.
07:43
And bothoba countrieszemlje had the better healthzdravlje, but still
166
448000
2000
Obje zemlje su imale bolje zdravstvo,
07:45
a very lownizak economyEkonomija.
167
450000
2000
ali još uvijek loše gospodarstvo.
07:47
And we camedošao to 1978, and MaoMao TseTse TungTung diedumro,
168
452000
3000
I dolazimo do 1978., Mao Tse Tung je umro,
07:50
and a newnovi guy turnedokrenut up from the left.
169
455000
3000

And it was DengDeng XiaopingXiaoping comingdolazak out here.
170
458000
3000
Dolazi Deng Xiaoping.
07:56
And he said, "Doesn't matterstvar
171
461000
2000
On kaže, "Nema veze
07:58
if a catmačka is whitebijela or blackcrno,
172

08:00
as long as it catcheshvata micemiševi."
173
465000
2000
sve dok hvata miševe."
08:02
Because catchinglov micemiševi
174
467000
2000
Jer hvatanje miševa
08:04
is what the two catsmačke wanted to do.
175
469000
3000
je ono što su dvije mačke htjele raditi.
08:07
And you can see the two catsmačke beingbiće here,
176
472000
3000
I možete vidjeti dvije mačke ovdje,
08:10
ChinaKina and IndiaIndija, wantingu nedostatku to catchulov the micesmiševa over there, you know.
177
475000
3000
Kina i Indija, kako žele uloviti miševe tamo.
08:13
And they decidedodlučio to go not only for healthzdravlje and educationobrazovanje,
178
478000
3000
Odlučile su ići ne samo na zdravstvo i edukaciju,
08:16
but alsotakođer startingpolazeći to growrasti theirnjihov economyEkonomija.
179

08:18
And the markettržište reformerreformator was successfuluspješan there.
180
483000
2000
Reformator tržišta bio je ovdje uspješan.
08:20
In '92 IndiaIndija followsslijedi with a markettržište reformreforme.
181
485000
3000
1992. Indija slijedi s reformom tržišta.
08:23
And they go quitedosta closelytijesno togetherzajedno,
182
488000
2000
I one putuju vrlo blizu zajedno,
08:25
and you can see that the similaritysličnost with IndiaIndija and ChinaKina,
183

2000
i vidi se kako je sličnost između Indije i Kine,
08:27
in manymnogi waysnačine, are greaterviše than the differencesRazlike with them.
184
492000
3000
na više načina, veća od razlika među njima.
08:30
And here they marchožujak on. And will they catchulov up?
185

2000
I one marširaju naprijed. Hoće li dostići?
08:32
This is the bigvelika questionpitanje todaydanas.
186

08:34
There they are todaydanas.
187
499000
2000
Ovdje su one danas.
08:36
Now what does it mean that the --
188
501000
2000
To znači da je --
08:38
(ApplausePljesak)

08:41
the averagesprosjeci there -- this is the averageprosječan of ChinaKina.

08:44
If I would splitSplit ChinaKina, look here,

08:55
But on the other handruka, GuizhouGuizhou, one of the poorestnajsiromašnija
195

No, s druge strane, Guizhou, jedna od

196
523000
3000
najsiromašnijih provincija Kine, je tamo.
09:01
And if I splitSplit GuizhouGuizhou into urbanurbani and ruralruralna,
197

A ako podijelim Guizhou u urbani i ruralni,
09:05
the ruralruralna partdio of GuizhouGuizhou goeside down there.
198
530000
3000
ruralni dio ide tamo dolje.
09:08
You see this enormousogroman inequitynepravda in ChinaKina,

A ako pogledam Indiju,
09:15
you have anotherjoš typetip of inequitynepravda, actuallyzapravo, in IndiaIndija.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Hans Rosling - Global health expert; data visionary
In Hans Rosling’s hands, data sings. Global trends in health and economics come to vivid life. And the big picture of global development—with some surprisingly good news—snaps into sharp focus.

Why you should listen

Even the most worldly and well-traveled among us have had their perspectives shifted by Hans Rosling. A professor of global health at Sweden's Karolinska Institute, his work focused on dispelling common myths about the so-called developing world, which (as he pointed out) is no longer worlds away from the West. In fact, most of the Third World is on the same trajectory toward health and prosperity, and many countries are moving twice as fast as the west did.

What set Rosling apart wasn't just his apt observations of broad social and economic trends, but the stunning way he presented them. Guaranteed: You've never seen data presented like this. A presentation that tracks global health and poverty trends should be, in a word: boring. But in Rosling's hands, data sings. Trends come to life. And the big picture — usually hazy at best — snaps into sharp focus.

Rosling's presentations were grounded in solid statistics (often drawn from United Nations and World Bank data), illustrated by the visualization software he developed. The animations transform development statistics into moving bubbles and flowing curves that make global trends clear, intuitive and even playful. During his legendary presentations, Rosling took this one step farther, narrating the animations with a sportscaster's flair.

Rosling developed the breakthrough software behind his visualizations through his nonprofit Gapminder, founded with his son and daughter-in-law. The free software — which can be loaded with any data — was purchased by Google in March 2007. (Rosling met the Google founders at TED.)

Rosling began his wide-ranging career as a physician, spending many years in rural Africa tracking a rare paralytic disease (which he named konzo) and discovering its cause: hunger and badly processed cassava. He co-founded Médecins sans Frontièrs (Doctors without Borders) Sweden, wrote a textbook on global health, and as a professor at the Karolinska Institut in Stockholm initiated key international research collaborations. He's also personally argued with many heads of state, including Fidel Castro.

Hans Rosling passed away in February 2017. He is greatly missed.
