The initiative of a non-partisan committee wanted to test the usability of the model of an unconditional basic income locally in an urban, scientifically based pilot project. A group of people would have received a basic monthly income for at least 36 months, regardless of their assets, income and occupational status. There was no provision for anything in return.
In Zurich, the initiative for a pilot project for an unconditional basic income was rejected in September 2022 with a negative vote of 53.9 percent.
At the national level, the ‘Living in Dignity – for an Affordable Basic Income’ initiative was launched in 2021, but failed in mid-January this year. And in 2016, Swiss voters rejected an unconditional basic income initiative with a negative vote of 77 percent. (SDA)
