Basic Income Earth Network (BIEN) and Freiburg Institute for Basic Income Studies (FRIBIS) Student Group at the University of Freiburg are organizing a series of conversations oriented to bring the basic income debate to the global student community and to promote exchange among students on this subject.

This will be a conversation between Enno Schmidt and Sarath Davala about their ideas of UBI and their experiences with UBI in the practical world.

Hello, my name is César Arenas and I´m writing since México City. I´m a post graduate economy student in the faculty of economy in the UNAM.
I have a simple question: could be possible to watch the Panel on the BIEN web site, YouTube or otherwise??
A basic income is the way forward to avert unnecessary human hardship in years to come as the world population increases, resources become scarcer, and as climate change and automation decrease the prospects of a safe employment for many.
It’s high time to restore dignity for many caught in daily hardship.
Please discuss how establishing a Basic Income framework can enhance citizens’ human right to leisure.
This is in a sense of the classical definition of leisure that refers to civic participation rather than a commodified version relative to work.
