Let's Bring UBI to Your Doorstep
While significant progress has been made in raising awareness about UBI as one of the most forward-thinking and equitable policies of our time, we need to take the next step. To make Basic Income become a reality, we must encourage politicians to elevate it on their agendas.
That’s why we are excited to launch the European Mayors for Basic Income campaign. And we need your help to get it off the ground!
What’s the Campaign About?
The concept is simple yet powerful: we’re asking local and regional leaders to pledge their support for UBI by committing to run pilot schemes in their municipalities or regions. They won’t be required to provide funding immediately but will express their willingness to implement UBI trials if resources become available, either through national budgets or EU-level funding.
This approach allows local councils to demonstrate their commitment to UBI without bearing financial burdens upfront. The campaign builds on successful initiatives like the Mayors’ Pledge by UBI Lab Network in the UK and Mayors for Guaranteed Income in the US.
European Mayors for Basic Income will launch in Krakow!
Our campaign will be officially launched in our upcoming General Assembly in Krakow, on September 27-29. Be there!
