In which countries is the party active?
Europe is interpreted more broadly by Volt than just the current borders of the EU, so in addition to the 27 EU member states, our chapters operate in four other countries: United Kingdom, Switzerland, Albania and Ukraine. There are countries where the local party organization has several thousand members, and there are countries such as Hungary, where a handful of determined people are trying to set the local movement on a growth path.
Who are the members of the Party?
Who are the members of the Party?
In 2023, Volt counted nearly twenty thousand legal members, while two years ago this number did not even reach nine thousand. The majority of party members are between the ages of 25 and 30 and live in the Netherlands, Germany or Italy. Within the party, we can find more members than average who have a connection with more European countries and cultures or whose country of residence is different from their native country — and this is also true of Volt's activists in Hungary. On the map below, we can see where the participants of the last general assembly in Prague came from: this clearly shows the cultural diversity of the active membership too.
