Begging for Life: From Manila to Malmo




People and Power investigates the growing global phenomenon of organised begging.


Begging has been a feature of life for as long as there have been poor people with nothing, and more affluent people with money to give to them.
It is certainly a common sight on the streets of towns and cities around the world today.
