Learning Paths

This learning hub bridges two intertwined projects: the history of poverty measurement (Counting Lives) and the mathematics of topological data analysis. Each path is self-contained — you can follow the mathematics through TDA or approach the same ideas via their political and historical context. The paths are designed to be complementary: concepts introduced in one illuminate the other.
