Zminijietna – Voice of the Left, Anti-Poverty Alliance and General Workers’ Union Youths, in a joint statement appealed to the “Maltese public to sign the official European-wide Citizens’ Initiative in support of an unconditional basic income, which will help combat poverty and improve the quality of life of millions of citizens.”
“Signing this petition will give a strong message to the European Commission to take issues such as poverty and economic inequality seriously and to start a European-wide official debate on policies in this regard,” the NGOs said.
The petition can be signed at www.basicincome2013.eu [1].
