Born after Brexit, built across borders
In March 2017, three friends from Germany, France, and Italy met in Berlin and decided that the answer to nationalism wasn't a national party, it was a pan-European one. Volt now runs on a single political programme across the continent, adapted locally. Volt Belgium was founded in 2018 and operates in Flanders, Brussels, and Wallonia in all three national languages.

EU Reform
Volt believes that a lot of issues are the same all over Europe (or even beyond) and need a European response. Therefore it would make sense to move competences from a national and regional, or even a local, level to the EU.
