Thank you, Itay π
Some people make a difference you donβt just see, but truly feel. Itay is one of those people.
Over the past years, Itay Garmy has dedicated himself wholeheartedly in the council for Volt Amsterdam. Always with an eye for the city, but above all for the people in it. For connection, especially in moments of tension. For dialogue, even when it was difficult.
He did this in his own way: with calmness, with sharpness, and with emotion. But above all, with genuine interest in others. Itay showed that politics is not only about positions, but about people trying to understand one another.
His commitment to encounter, dialogue, and human rights has impacted not only the council, but the entire city. He brought together people who might otherwise never have met. That is exactly what we need.
We are saying goodbye to a deeply committed council member. Someone who kept working toward a shared future, even when it wasnβt easy.
Dear Itay, thank you for everything you have meant to us and to Amsterdam. We will miss you greatly in the council, but above all we are grateful that you remain part of Volt and a friend.
With love,
your Volt colleagues π
