Neil Howard

Dr. Neil Howard is an anthropologist of development whose current research explores innovative forms of labour and social protection, focusing on Unconditional Basic Income (UBI) combined with participatory forms community organising.

I frequently collaborate with the international child protection agency, Terre des Hommes, on participatory action research projects with child migrants, child workers, and street-connected children to develop ground-up responses to their circumstances.

I'm also on the Executive Committee of the Basic Income Earth Network and lead the Bath UBI Beacon, which aims to make Bath the leading national centre of UBI scholarship: https://www.bath.ac.uk/campaigns/bath-beacon-universal-basic-income/.
