A new vision of the leasehold system.

Climate change has a direct impact on the quality of life in the city. Therefore, sustainability must become the norm for Amsterdam. Volt aims to turn Amsterdam green, and make intelligent choices about our energy use while encouraging sustainable innovation.

Innovation starts with people. Volt 2wants well-being to be an essential driver of economic policy. Complex problems such as the housing crisis are a limiting factor on that wellbeing. A city that seeks balance won’t allow itself to be divided into winners and losers but focuses on the bigger picture and involves everyone in its success.

Real freedom is being able to be who you are and do what you’re good at. We want all Amsterdammers to have equal opportunities, to restore trust between citizens and government and reduce differences between neighbourhoods. Volt strives for an inclusive, diverse city where all Amsterdammers feel both heard and represented.

Volt wants to ensure a bright future for future generations and give them the opportunity to realise their dreams and ambitions. This is only possible with accessible education for everyone in the city, regard- less of their postal code.

Amsterdammers should have a say in the most critical choices that affect their lives and future. Volt is also committed to supporting and protecting our vibrant, di- verse culture.

European cooperation makes Amsterdam stronger, and Amsterdam makes Europe stronger. Volt aims to make Amsterdam one of the leading cities in sustainable innovation - a paradise for sustainability best practices. Just as we get ideas from other European cities, we want other cities to look to Amsterdam for inspiration.
