International Meeting
on UBI and Basic Income Experiments
June 29, 2022
University of Minho, Braga, Portugal
Organizer: UBIEXP Research Project, Centre for Ethics, Politics & Society (University of Minho)
The debate about basic income requires our attention particularly when a growing number of countries and cities are experimentig with new schemes of cash transfer. This conference aims to evaluate experiments from both normative and empirical perspectives, drawing on the insights of philosophy, political science, and economics, amongst others.
It seeks to bring together those who are engaged in experiments both at a theoretical and practical levels to foster the debate between those involved in designing and
implementing pilots with scholars in the fields of political philosophy, social sciences and policy analysis.
We are particularly interested in assessing the political and the philosophical implications of these pilots and their results, the nature of those experiments, the epistemic status of the data and the impacts it generates, the manner in which the results can be translated into a real policy, to what extent they might inform other social policies, and which are the main limitations and challenges when conducting them.
