Gapminder Videos

The mission of Gapminder  (a Swedish non-profit foundation, promoting sustainable global development and achievement) is “fighting devastating ignorance with fact-based world-views everyone can understand”. Statistics can often be counterintuitive and hard to understand, Gapminder offers data and tools for giving sense to claims and data often found in the media about health. The video section is very rich, with some videos dedicated to cancer statistics (breast, liver, lung and prostate cancer).
