Action | 13.02.25

The 24th Basic Income Earth Network (BIEN) Congress will take place between 27th - 29th August 2025 in Maricá and Niterói, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

This year's theme is: Basic Income & Solidarity Economy: new horizons for social protection. 

The organisers say:

“We are on the verge of a significant socioeconomic transformation in a world marked by widespread poverty and vulnerability, persistent structural inequalities, precarious work, and weakened community ties, all against a backdrop of urgent and pressing environmental challenges.

“We invite scholars, policymakers, practitioners, activists, artists, and students to contribute to an engaging and thought-provoking dialogue. Our aim is to explore the intersections between basic income and practices of ‘solidarity economy’ as emerging frameworks for social protection that go beyond the traditional welfare state paradigm.”
