Focus Chapter Panel
On May 9th Volt Netherlands will hold a General Assembly (GA) in Ede. VoltThere will have the stage to introduce our Volt focus chapters this year and will invite everyone to meet them in person at the market stalls.
The Focus Chapters
Every year Volt chooses which chapters will be the focus chapters of that year. This year these are: Cyprus, Czechia, Denmark/Sweden, France, and Italy. Click the picture for more information on this focus chapter project.
This panel creates a space for Volt Netherlands members to work more closely together with these chapters as one European party by sharing best practices and interesting projects.
Join us in the market stalls to ask your personal questions to these chapters!
