The role that the UBI could play during a health crisis was widely discussed, as well as the UBI pilot project in Geneva and the new federal initiative at the stage of collecting signatures.

Federal initiative, “Living in dignity - For an unconditional, financeable basic income”
Dear friend,
A new UBI initiative was launched in Bern on 21 September 2021. Its contents are essentially taken from the previous initiative, supplementing them with provisions to ensure the preservation of social insurance and financing that protects the middle classes. BIEN Switzerland supports the new initiative. Anyone wishing to participate in the campaign will find useful information at the foot of the page.

If an unconditional basic income were to be approved by the population, only 2% of the Swiss people would stop working. Another 8 % would consider this option in some circumstances.
