Why Volt?

European challenges need European solutions.

Climate crisis 🌱

Migration 🌍

Digitalization 📱

Security 🛡️

National parties are reaching their limits when it comes to major challenges.

We are the first pan-European party that does not represent any one country, but instead makes cross-border policy for all Europeans. We are pan-European, pragmatic, progressive and make practicable proposals to solve pan-European grievances.

United in Europe, strengthened locally.

In 31 countries, we encourage citizens to rethink and help shape policy at local, national and European level. There are already over 125 elected Volt representatives in Europe.

Our party consists of international teams in all European nations who support each other and shape politics across borders for Europe.

The European force in Austria

Austria can make an important contribution to a pan-European, progressive and pragmatic policy. But it can also benefit from this:

Creative solutions to local challenges are constantly being found all over Europe, from digital administrative procedures like in Estonia to traffic calming like in Barcelona or lifelong learning like in Sweden.

Only with a strong pan-European presence in the EU Parliament can we drive decisive changes for a humane, digital and climate-neutral future.
