A Universal Basic Income Guarantee (UBIG) is a commitment by government to ensure that everyone has a minimum level of income to meet their basic needs. This is done through a regular cash transfer or grant, that spurs development and promotes sustainable livelihoods. But the benefits of a UBIG are not just economic. A UBIG can benefit society by improving health and education outcomes, increasing social cohesion, and supporting gender equality.
In our UBIG factsheet series, also available in English, Afrikaans, isiXhosa, and isiZulu, we present evidence to show that a UBIG can improve the lives of millions of people in South Africa. Although a UBIG is not a silver bullet in and of itself, the factsheet series highlights that it is a necessary intervention, amongst others, to unlock a fairer, safer, and more prosperous future for South Africa.
