(Around 75 participants from more than 20 countries; Worldwide 1st Meeting of UBI Networks and UBI Advocates)

​

From the Invitation Message :

We are living through an EMERGENCY situation all over the World. Covid-19 has had deleterious impact on our economies, democracy, and mental health, in addition to being a rapidly spreading Pandemic threatening our lives. Given that it has serious consequences for majority of the working populations in all countries, and thereby impacting the UBI related discussions, we believe that, from UBI Advocacy point of view; an informal and web based meeting of UBI Advocates and UBI Networks would be necessary and beneficial.

 

(In fact, we have been having several such informal sessions in the recent past as a part of other ongoing international projects/efforts such as “ECI Campaign”, monthly “UBI - Video Chats”, “The Record Book of UBI Advocates”, “Impacts of Covid-19 and UBI Discussions”, etc., but with limited number of friends.)
