Once again, we’re delighted to begin the year with the FRIBIS Best Paper Award. This year, the FRIBIS Board of Directors chose Maria Franchi, PhD student at the University of Bath and member of the FRIBIS Gender Team, for her outstanding contribution to the FRIBIS Annual Conference Volume Care & Gender – Potentials and Risks of Universal Basic Income. Proceedings of the FRIBIS Annual Conference 2023.
In her paper, Towards a Feminist UBI: The Potential of a Relational Approach Alongside UBI on Care and Gender, Maria Franchi explores the conference’s core themes—Gender & Care—through an interdisciplinary lens. She examines definitions of Universal Basic Income from a feminist perspective, addressing issues of gender equality and the distribution of care responsibilities.
We would like to take this opportunity to once again thank all the authors for their contributions and congratulate Maria Franchi.
