This is the new initiative that develops work we have been doing on Universal Basic Services (UBS) and on the social dimension of the Green New Deal. We are working in partnership with the New Economics Foundation and the Institute for Global Prosperity at UCL to build both theory and practice.
The Social Guarantee enshrines every person’s right to life’s essentials: a stable planet, education, health and social care, a decent home, childcare, nutritious food, clean air and water, energy, transport and access to the internet. For this to happen, everyone must have access to services that meet their needs as well as to a fair living income. Please join us at 6pm on Thursday 1st July as we discuss why we need a Social Guarantee – what it means, why it matters and how it can be put into practice.
We have a great line-up of speakers: Ann Pettifor – Award winning economist and author of The Case for The Green New Deal, Kate Raworth – Renegade economist and creator of Doughnut Economics, Georgia Gould – Leader of Camden Council and Chaitanya Kumar – Head of Environment and Green Transition at the New Economics Foundation. The event will be chaired by Maeve Cohen – Project Officer, The Social Guarantee.
