What we’re about
A Basic Income (also called universal basic income (UBI), unconditional basic income, basic income guarantee), is a liveable wage provided to all citizens unconditionally. It's a complex issue that is discussed more fully on our website: https://basicincomeaustralia.com/
This group will have three main objectives:
1. Discuss and refine the concept - good ideas aren't born out of thin air, they have to be critiqued and analysed from every angle.
2. Publicise the idea and expand the public discussion - through targeted marketing campaigns and creating educational tools.
3. Campaign politically - confirming where politicians stand, promoting candidates who support it and pushing our own candidates as a last resort.

See all- BIA - Book Club - Fully Automated Luxury Communism by Aaron BastaniLink visible for attendees
Join Basic Income Australia for our next Online Book Club, where we’ll be discussing Fully Automated Luxury Communism by Aaron Bastani!
In this provocative and forward-thinking book, Bastani explores how emerging technologies—automation, AI, renewable energy, and synthetic biology—could create a world of abundance where work is optional, and economic security is universal. He argues that we are on the brink of a post-scarcity society, where Universal Basic Income plays a crucial role in ensuring everyone benefits from technological advancements.
