DISCUSSION SERIES
One of the ways we aim to enthusiastically talk about all important issues in Europe is by facilitating discussions. Organising a way for people to feel heard empowers them. These discussions are not only open to Volt members, but all citizens, which is crucial when wanting to consider different perspectives around an issue.
Organising one discussion is already great. But the biggest impact is created when organising not one but multiple discussions. Volt members and citizens in general will slowly feel comfortable and different topics will bring different people to the discussion.
