Edouard Mathieu: An Open Data Approach to Solving the World’s Problems

from ONE OF 8 BILLION Hosted by Ivan Stegic

SUMMARY Edouard Mathieu, from Our World in Data, says data can be a force for change as we address problems ranging from COVID to climate change. GUEST Edouard Mathieu: Head of Data - Our World in Data HIGHLIGHTS Our World in Data was founded on the premise that data can tell stories about what is good or bad in our world and how we can make things better. The non-profit is committed to providing trustworthy information that can be shared and enhanced to make it even more useful in solving problems. Much of the data is aligned around the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) which outlined critical goals for humanity to address by 2030. Global data reveals a mixed bag in terms of the direction of our world, with some areas showing promise and others in decline.
