Exploring the Relationship Between Firearm Deaths, Ownership, and Regulations
Firearm Deaths (per 100K), Firearm Inventory and Gun Law Strictness
This dashboard examines the connection between firearm-related deaths, the number of firearms per capita, and the strictness of gun laws across various countries. By analyzing firearm deaths per 100K people alongside national firearm inventory and regulations, we can uncover trends and patterns that highlight how access to firearms and legislative frameworks impact public safety. Understanding these relationships is key to shaping policies that balance rights and safety, aiming to reduce gun violence and improve security for communities worldwide.

Towards a More Effective and Equitable Healthcare System
The analysis of global and regional healthcare performance reveals significant disparities in both cost and outcomes. Countries with robust preventive care and accessible healthcare systems, such as those in the Nordic region, consistently achieve better health outcomes despite high taxes.
The U.S., despite its high healthcare spending, struggles with inefficiencies, particularly in managing chronic diseases like diabetes and obesity. To improve global health, prioritizing access to healthy foods, preventive care, and affordable healthcare delivery is essential. A unified global healthcare approach might offer a solution to the current disparities and inefficiencies.
