Meet the Team

The UBI4ALL Team is from several countries. In the course of starting the European Citizens' Initiative we asked ourselves how Unconditional Basic Income touches other people in other countries. So we set up the UBI4ALL raffle in order to check out the effects of Basic Income throughout the world.
