Dik Manusch (Romani: See the Person, Se människan translated to Swedish)[3] is a street newspaper published in northern Sweden. First published in early 2015 and focused on the Västerbotten province, the newspaper aims to help homeless European Union migrants – who are primarily Romani people from the Balkans, especially Romania[4] – to support themselves, rather than being forced to resort to begging.[5] Distributed for free to the migrants, each newspaper is sold for 50 Swedish krona, the profits going entirely to the seller.[6] Another purpose is to create a debate in Swedish society about the conditions faced by these people.[7]
Preparations for the newspaper began in 2014, on suggestion from Ilile Dumitru, who had seen Situation Sthlm being sold by the homeless of Stockholm.[8][9] The newspaper was created by the association SAMS, a coalition of several different organizations and churches in Skellefteå.[10] The first issue – numbering 5,000 – was printed by Norran, and featured content created by various writers on a non-profit basis.[11] The second issue, with 15,000 prints, was likewise printed by Norran and financed by volunteer donations. To support the newspaper an association called the Friends of Dik Manusch was formed.[12]
