A Microeconomic Solution to Reduce Begging in Luxembourg’s Streets
Professor Patrick Vanhoudt, our Vice-Dean, offers a fresh perspective on a pressing issue facing Luxembourg: the rise of organized street begging.
In his latest article, he proposes a novel approach that shifts the focus from punitive measures to a more humane and sustainable solution. By introducing a voucher-based system, Professor Vanhoudt suggests a way to provide direct support to those in need while minimizing the risk of funds being misused. This approach offers a cost-effective and efficient way to address the issue, benefiting both the vulnerable population and the community as a whole.
