UBI Lab Finland started building understanding on the many perspectives and possibilities of UBI (Universal Basic Income) on the Hunome ‘social 4.0’ platform (see more about Hunome and why we’ve started using it below). UBI Lab Finland is part of the worldwide UBI Lab Network, comprising of over 40 individual local and thematic UBI Labs around the world.
In a previous session on October 24 people with different backgrounds added new perspectives into the UBI Spark map. Results were fascinating and people just loved how easy and rewarding it is to bring their thinking and experiences around UBI in one place in Hunome.

The Basic Income Earth Network Congress 2024 is being hosted at the University of Bath, UK from the 29th-31st of August 2024. The theme for the Congress is Reclaiming the Future: Basic Income and Socioecological Transformation. The event aims to hold political and academic discussions on the role a basic income and allied ideas and movements can play in a just and sustainable transformation.
We are now accepting contributions, in the forms of panels, roundtables, sessions, workshops, performances and activities, to help co-shape the agenda for the Congress. This is not a call for papers, which will follow early next year. We aim to attract participation and partnerships from a wide range of actors, movements and organizations to make this a truly rich and transformative festival of ideas. This includes those not traditionally within the basic income fold, and even those critical of the idea. The full Call for Contributions can be found here. The deadline for submissions is 15th of January 2024.
Please share this far and wide in your networks, basic income and otherwise. Please all feel free to reach out to us to further clarify or discuss any ideas you may have at biencongress2024@gmail.com.
