Empowering Democracy

There is no place for autocracy and dictatorship in the 21st century. Volt Ukraine is committed to defending and promoting the values of democracy and freedom of choice, which remains one of the top priorities on the EU agenda. As a newly-emerged political movement, Volt Ukraine will fight for the strengthening of trust in the Pan-European project through an informed citizenry and a robust and transparent European media landscape.
Volt has identified 5+1 fundamental challenges that need to be overcome in each European country and in Europe as a whole.
Why 5+1 challenges?
The 5 Challenges are basically the same for each country, but their implementation can be adapted at the national level to reflect local reality.
Challenge +1 - our proposal for reforming and strengthening the EU - is identical for all our national chapters.
Education and digitalisation are key elements of the 21st century
An innovative economy must be the engine of society's progress
No-one should be left behind - no matter their gender, income, religion, or origin
Europe needs to assume responsibility for its role in global challenges
People must be empowered to influence politics beyond elections alone
We love the EU - this doesn't mean there is no room for improvement
