Worldmapper: HIV PrevalenceA few students have asked for more information about the maps I showed in class to visualize the global distribution of sexually transmitted infections, poverty, and violence. The maps, like this one showing HIV prevalence, come from worldmapper.org, a project of researchers at the University of Sheffield and the University of Michigan. See the full index of available maps here.

You can also read more about the Worldmapper project in a recent article from PLoS Medicine, an open-source, peer-reviewed journal.
