Universal Basic Income (UBI) has been piloted globally, including in many African countries, but not yet in Ghana. It has been piloted as a potential strategy to reduce poverty and inequality. Through qualitative interviews and surveys conducted among Ghanaian politicians and educationalists, this presentation aims to understand Ghanaians' attitudes, beliefs, and expectations towards UBI. Factors such as cultural norms, existing social welfare programmes, and concerns about dependency are identified as influencing attitudes towards UBI. In conclusion, the research contributes to the ongoing debate on UBI by providing insights into the perspectives of Ghanaians, thereby informing policymakers and stakeholders about the opportunities and challenges of adopting UBI as a poverty reduction strategy in Ghana.
