Over the last year, our work in the community has shown us that we are collectively concerned about both growing the base of people who understand and support basic income, and in creating the narrative change and culture shift necessary for widespread adoption of the idea. When advocating for basic income, we often come across narratives that are simply not true – from distrust in people living in poverty, to judgements around deservedness, to the fear that people will stop working if we were to have basic income.

So, for our 2024 Week of Action, we want to lean into education, specifically challenging the idea that we live in a Meritocracy, and that it is individuals, not our current systems, that are responsible for poverty. We want to support you in helping start conversations, change hearts and minds, and connect everyday in your community the idea of basic income.

Join us in a collective, national Week of Action as we watch films, march, have discussions, and add our names to the growing list of people who support basic income.
