MOBILIZING FOR BASIC INCOMES. SOCIAL INNOVATION IN MOTION

Project description

For innovative social protection policies

Growing poverty and unemployment levels remain serious policy challenges in many European countries. There is a need for innovative social protection measures and comprehensive solutions. The EU-funded project MOBILISE will study the role of civil society organisations (CSO) in promoting universal basic income (UBI) pilot tests. It will examine the role of CSOs in social policy reforms via comparative research on the national level (EU) and the local level in three European cities. The results will be widely disseminated and communicated to stakeholders, ultimately contributing to the objectives set by the European platform against poverty and social exclusion.
