FREEDOM DAY | As South Africa marks the 30th anniversary of our shared, hard-fought-for & hard-won, constitutional democracy a reminder, true economic justice can only be achieved through democracy. So be sure to vote on 29 May this year! #30YearsOfDemocracy #30YearsofFreedom
📢 Tune in this Wednesday to hear the IEJ's @NeilColemanSA in conversation with US #UBI advocate @scottsantens. The two will discuss how South Africa could soon become a basic income leader, charting a new inclusive development paradigm! x.com/i/spaces/1ynko…

A #Basic IncomeGrant (BIG) in South Africa would be transformative. It can end poverty and hunger, revitalise local economies, and mitigate widespread unemployment. We can afford to phase it in! And we can't afford not to. Fact sheets & policy briefs > ow.ly/n1zQ50RjEfU

ON THE RADIO | IEJ Senior Policy Specialist @NeilColemanSA will be on @SAfmRadio with @AshrafGarda at 4:20 PM to discuss the why & possible how of a #BasicIncome in South Africa. 📻 104 to 107 FM 🎧 listen.safm.co.za/listensafm/
In #SouthAfrica young people are desperate to work, but often have to choose between searching for a job and buying food. A #BasicIncomeGrant frees people from day-to-day survival mode, unlocking their ability to build a future for themselves, through work or entrepreneurship.
Poverty traps generations in a cycle of poor health & education. This costs us all as a society. A #BasicIncomeGrant (BIG) can help break this cycle. Kids grow up healthier & stay in school, improving their ouTcomes later in life. > ow.ly/n1zQ50RjEfU #BasicIncomeForAll
THIS 420 | Revisit our report on the complexities of SA's 🇿🇦 #Cannabis industry that highlights the need for policy reform to foster inclusive growth & offers recommendations on how the industry can adopt a more equitable & just (puff-puff-pass) approach. iej.org.za/inclusive-deve…
📢HAPPENING TODAY There's no #ClimateJustice without #Debt Justice! Join us to discuss solutions that address both 🌍💰 with @shereent @MarinaZucker @jwalarambarran @AdyChikowore @IMFNews 📍Washington DC 🕟4-5.30pm EDT
