Derek Van Gorder

is a writer, researcher and cofounder of The Greshm Institute, a nonprofit think tank whose mission is to investigate the economics of Universal Basic Income (UBI).

Universal Basic Income

Universal Basic Income (also known as basic income or UBI) is a regular cash payment to every person on an individual basis without means test or work requirement.While UBI is often discussed as a safety net or response to automation, Derek's work describes UBI as a macroeconomic policy lever which can improve consumer outcomes and lead to a more stable, efficient and productive economy overall.
