Learning on ScreenCan Maths Predict a Riot?
- Synopsis
- This video came about as a result of work done by Dr Hannah Fry at University College, London, looking at the 2011 London riots from a mathematical perspective. While looking into the data behind the events, Fry noticed the striking links between the areas of the city that most rioters came from and the deprivation of those communities and investigated further by speaking to charities, youth workers and young people across the capital.
