Universal Basic Income and beyond — what are our options for recovery

In this podcast we connect the dots between inequality, COVID-19, and inclusive recovery. We discuss this with Balázs Horvath, Chief Economist for UNDP in Asia and the Pacific.
 
This is a forward-looking conversation concerned with policy shifts that need to happen for such a recovery to be possible. Key points covered are:

• What policy pathways are likely to bring about a more equitable recovery?;

• If/how should Universal Basic Income be built into the COVID-19 recovery packages? Can we afford it?;

• What policy experiments and data are there to guide us?; and

• What forms of inequalities and groups we should particularly worry about now – both on the research and on the policy side?
