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.
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.
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.
