Economy & Fiscal Justice

Euro logo in Frankfurt
Our vision is to create a society in which everyone in need benefits from tax relief to make their daily expenses, such as groceries and outings, easier to bear. We aim to eliminate paternalistic practices, such as car subsidies and company cars. Furthermore, we strive for an economy that grows sustainably, benefiting people, health, the planet, and nature.

Volt believes that a fair and sustainable tax system is crucial for addressing citizens' concerns, reducing inequality, and promoting economic stability. By balancing taxes, combating fraud, treating single individuals equally, and aligning corporate taxes with societal, environmental, and governance contributions, Belgium can create a more prosperous and just society.

Energy Transition & Climate

Hands carrying earth in nature
Global warming, the loss of biodiversity, and the pollution of air and water: climate change is causing increasing damage to humans and nature. Therefore, it is vital, among other things, to transition away from fossil fuels for the future of humanity and indeed the world as we know it. Volt proposes a pragmatic approach based on a combination of nuclear energy and renewable energies, with the latter taking a growing portion of our energy production over the years.

Education & Equal Opportunities

Library in Ireland
Our European Union is founded upon the values of Respect for human dignity, Freedom, Democracy, Equality, Rule of law, and Respect for human rights, including those of minorities. To realise a society built on these values, Volt is committed to advance policies that lead to Belgium being a systematically inclusive society that offers equal opportunities for all. Systemic inclusion is of high importance as such a society would be beneficial to all Belgians.

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.
