With The Bali Street Mums Project (Ibu Ibu)
Bali Street Mums Project works with mothers and children who have been forced to beg, due to poverty, on the urban streets of Kuta and Denpasar. The mother will usually hide, while their children are forced to run up to cars stopped at the traffic lights, to beg for money. They also work with Mothers who live at the rubbish dump in Denpasar and pick through the rubbish piles looking for recyclables to sell.
