BIG Coalition Advocates for Basic Income as Human Right

The BIG Coalition asserts that the Basic Income Grant is not charity but a moral imperative and human right, crucial for protecting citizens from poverty. Spokesperson Rinaani Musutua emphasizes the need for social protection amid high unemployment rates, urging the government to fulfill its obligations under international human rights treaties. The coalition views BIG as an economic stimulus, planning a protest march to support a universal, unconditional grant to combat poverty, unemployment, and inequality in Namibia.
