Unconditional Basic Income Europe (UBIE) is organising a series of five conferences on the theme “UBI in Europe – Promoting civil society” in order to promote Unconditional Basic Income (UBI) in Europe over the next year. The conferences are:

  • UBI as a response to social inequality in Europe – Maribor, Slovenia, 19th-20th March 2015.
  • Minimum Income vs. Basic Income – Paris, France, 19th -20th June 2015
  • Stimulating Social Cohesion and Peace – The Hague, Netherlands, 17th -18th Sept. 2015
  • National UBI vs. UBI in Europe – Budapest, Hungary, 5th – 6th Dec. 2015
  • UBI and Degrowth – Cologne, Germany, 26th – ­28th Feb. 2016 ­

For each of those events, organizers want to adopt a participative way of elaborating the programs, and therefore, they are seeking for contributions to our first conference to be held in Maribor, Slovenia, 19th-20th March 2015.

The invitation is open to all European citizens with a wider interest in unconditional basic income who wish to share their findings and research with a European network. The conference in Maribor will explore the following key themes:

  • Different social support­ systems and inequality
  • Reaching social cohesion in Europe – Basic Income as one possible solution

The deadline for proposals is 8th January. For more details on how to participate, please see the conference website.
