Unprecendented unemployment figures in the United States of America in the wake of COVID-19 require a new type of response – Is Universal Basic Income the answer?

Karl Widerquist and Scott Santens speak to our anchors Louise Haagh (BIEN), Sarath Davala (INBI and BIEN) and Jamie Cooke (RSA & BIEN).

BIEN Conversations is a series of informal videos with thought leaders in the field of Basic Income and beyond. The aim of the Conversations series is to fill a gap in the coverage of Covid and basic income, by reflecting critically on both the opportunities and risks which this new context for the discussion about basic income creates.

The opinions of the anchors and guests are their own and do not reflect BIEN’s position.
