SUMMARY:YSI – Pre Conference Day (Early Career Day) @ 24 BIEN Congress
DESCRIPTION:This project aims to bring together young scholars from diverse backgrounds to engage in discussions on basic income and its role in addressing inequality\, with a particular focus on Latin America. Organized by the YSI Inequality and Latin America Working Groups\, this initiative will take place as part of the BIEN Congress 2025 in Brazil\, a major international conference dedicated to exploring universal basic income (UBI) as a policy tool for economic and social transformation\, this year with a focus on Basic Income & Solidarity Economy: New Horizons for Social Protection \nBy participating in this project\, young researchers will have the opportunity to present their work\, engage in interdisciplinary discussions\, and connect with leading experts in the field. The project is designed to create a collaborative space where participants can critically examine the effectiveness\, challenges\, and future prospects of basic income policies\, particularly in regions characterized by high levels of inequality. \n\nWe invite submissions of articles and posters\, in English\, Portuguese or Spanish.\nSubmissions that explore basic income and solidarity economy\, focusing\, but not limited to\, the following themes: \n\n\nBasic Income and Social Justice: Examining the potential of basic income to address poverty\, inequality\, and precarity. \n\n\nEnvironmental Sustainability: Exploring how basic income intersects with ecological justice and climate resilience. \n\n\nGender Justice and Basic Income: Investigating how basic income can contribute to gender equity\, particularly in relation to care work and economic independence. \n\n\nCommunity and Solidarity Economies: Understanding how grassroots initiatives can complement or enhance the implementation of basic income. \n\n\nInnovative Methodologies: Creative approaches to researching basic income and its impacts. \n\n\nWe encourage submissions from early-career scholars\, particularly those from underrepresented backgrounds or institutions. \n\n\nWhat to Expect\nYSI organizer and participants will actively engage in various activities designed to foster collaboration and intellectual exchange: \n\nYSI Panel Sessions: Presentations and discussions featuring early-career researchers alongside established academics and policymakers.\nWorkshops and Roundtables: Interactive sessions where participants can refine their research ideas\, receive feedback\, and collaborate on future projects.\nNetworking Opportunities: Opportunities to connect with scholars\, activists\, and policymakers working on social protection and inequality in Latin America and beyond.\nSite Visits (TBD): If feasible\, participants may visit locations implementing experimental basic income programs\, such as Maricá\, to observe real-world applications.\nAfter the presentation in the Early Career Day\, participants are more than welcome to attend the rest of the Congress!\n\nWho Should Participate?\nThis project is open to young scholars\, early-career researchers\, graduate students\, and practitioners with an interest in inequality\, social policy\, basic income\, and economic development. While the focus is on Latin America\, we encourage participants from all regions to apply\, as comparative perspectives enrich the discussion. Selected participants will be entitled to travel stipend\, and accomodation for the whole duration of the Congress. \nWhy Take Part?\nBy joining this initiative\, participants will: \n\nGain exposure to cutting-edge debates on basic income and inequality.\nEngage with policymakers and practitioners working on real-world applications of UBI.\nExpand their academic and professional networks within YSI and the broader research community.\nContribute to shaping the discourse on economic justice and innovative policy solutions.\n\nThis is a unique opportunity to be part of a globally significant conversation on economic justice while developing research collaborations and insights that can inform both academic work and policy debates. \nHow to apply?\nFirst\, register on the BIEN website https://bien2025.com.br/.
