Basic Income Ireland members were in Celbridge Community Library in Co Kildare on Saturday Nov 23rd. Our hosts were Cultivate Celbridge and Transition Town Maynooth, both groups concerned with community resilience. We had a presentation on basic income and a very engaged discussion afterwards for about an hour and a half. Most of the fifteen people present were positive about the concept and keen to explore it in more depth. Among many insights and points made was one about the connection between personal and community resilience. Basic income increases personal resilience and frees people’s talents and energies to work at projects that increase community resilience.
