We are influenced by culture, fashion and food from around the world, so why not their money habits too? Kim and Eileen talk to Tom Cooper, director of The Hamilton Roundtable for Poverty Reduction in Canada. His community took part in a trial for Basic Income and he shares the results. Professor Mike Danson is an economist and the Basic Income Network Scotland chair, and he is exploring how it could work to improve the lives of people here. The Netherlands rank amongst the highest countries in terms of work-life balance according to the OECD Better Life Index. They are even discussing putting remote working protections in to law. So should we be following in their footsteps, or is it more complex than it may seem? Plus Milad Gatfan in Dundee and Nisreen Mamaji in Mumbai share some global perspectives from Iraq and India.
