Join us for a thought-provoking evening as we delve into the concept of basic income through the lens of the ground breaking documentary “A Human Picture.” Created by the Hamilton roundtable for Poverty Reduction, this film offers a poignant exploration of basic income and its potential to reshape society.
The screening will be followed by a dynamic panel discussion featuring:
- Jessie Golem – Ontario Basic Income Pilot Participant and Activist
- Tom Cooper – Director of the Hamilton Roundtable for Poverty Reduction
- Nayssam Shujauddin – Community Program Lead, Food Uniting Neighbours, 10C
- Sharon Henriques – Community Advocate with Lived Expertise
Engage with our panelists as they unpack the film’s themes around basic income as a root cause solution to poverty and discuss the benefits of a basic income for individuals, communities and the future of work.
We’ll also have a special guest appearance!
