Description

Danny Dorling is a social geographer and is the Halford Mackinder Professorship in Geography in Oxford. He has studied and published extensively on issues concerning housing, health, employment, education and poverty. His collaborative work on the Worldmapper project has resulted in collection of world maps or ‘cartograms’, where territories are re-sized according to a subject of interest, for instance, inequality.

In this episode of Medicine Unboxed VOICES, Danny speaks with Sam Guglani about social inequality, personal and political responses to it, and its profound impact on the health and wellbeing of societies.
