SPI

SPI is a feminist research think- and do- tank. Our vision is a prosperous and fair society, embracing just mitigation and adaptation, where people live active and productive lives, have access to land and assets and a sufficient and dignified lives... Human Rights are universal. In 2022 SPI received Observer Status with the African Commission on Human and People's Rights. We have made submissions to the UN Committee on Economic Social and Cultural Rights. We have research partner projects across the Global South. SPI is a member of Basic Income Earth Network (BIEN). We are establishing a new project to track international post-Covid social security and labour market policy innovation and learnings... Since our inception, SPI has raised the call for a universal basic income grant. Indexed to the Upper Bound Poverty Line, our research demonstrates how this one policy will be able to stabilise society, meet basic needs, create just under 5 million decent jobs and grow the economy..
