Electoral reform
Implementation of all-encompassing electoral constituencies:
One regional electoral constituency for each regional election (One Flemish constituency & one Walloon constituency)
One federal electoral constituency for the Belgian federal elections
Transnational electoral lists for the European elections
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.
