What are Volt's political goals? / The Future of Europe

Build better and listen to the citizens

Volt can see that citizen involvement creates better decisions. That's why citizens need to have a more direct say in projects that affect everyday life and the local community.

  • Citizen assemblies and deliberative democracy must be the standard. 

  • Reduce investment in fossil infrastructure- (Baltic Pipe)

  • Stop the Lynetteholm (link)  

  • Ensure citizen involvement in building projects- from windmills to housing.

  • Build housing created for community.

The 5+1 Challenges

Volt has defined 5+1 fundamental Challenges that need to be tackled in each European country and in Europe as a whole.

Why 5 + 1 Challenges?

The 5 Challenges are basically the same for every country, but their implementation can be adapted on the national level to take into account local realities.

The +1 Challenge – our proposal to reform and strengthen the EU – is identical across all our national programmes.
