PEOPLE & PLACES (CHILDREN'S / TEENAGE). A high-end geography series that explores some of the fastest-developing countries and cities in the world and assesses how they are dealing with the challenges of the 21st century.

Can its success be sustained, without putting at risk its environment and rich cultural heritage?. Ages 9+
