A conference, entitled, “Citizen’s Income: A solid foundation for tomorrow’s benefits system,” will take place on Friday 6th June at the British Library (Euston Road, London) from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Speakers already confirmed include Natalie Bennett (Leader of the Green Party), Dr. Tony Fitzpatrick (Nottingham University), John McDonnell MP, Professor Guy Standing (SOAS).
The event will be genuinely a conference, in the sense that participants shall be conferring with each other over particular issues that face the debate on Citizen’s Income and that would face the policy’s implementation. Political feasibility, the design and modelling of alternative schemes, and funding options, have already been suggested as topics that require in-depth discussion.
Organizers ask people to register their interest in attending by sending name and contact details to info@citizensincome.org.
