This report does not discuss the pro and contra of Basic Income or of different implementation strategies but – in the context of the TRANSIT project – it reflects on Basic Income as a transformative social innovation with a focus on its emergence, interactions among actors involved and (perceived) agency. After the introductory sections follows a chapter on the transnational BIEN network, a chapter on Basic Income initiatives in the Netherlands and a chapter on Basic Income initiatives in Germany. Findings are summarised, synthesised and concluded in the final chapter of the report. The Annex contains, amongst other, a short study on the framing of Basic Income in on-line discussions.
