Universal Basic Services

Universal Basic Services (UBS) refer to essential services provided by the government to all citizens, aimed at ensuring a decent standard of living. These services typically include healthcare, education, public transportation, housing, and social care. The idea is to guarantee that everyone has access to fundamental needs regardless of income, promoting social equality and well-being. Unlike welfare benefits, UBS are universally available and often free or affordable, fostering social cohesion and reducing disparities by removing barriers to essential services.
