Connect
Around the world, people are developing ideas, sharing experiences and building initiatives that can improve society. Connect helps them find the right route into Volt’s network, bringing citizens, civil society, experts, Communities and political representatives together around shared challenges.
Connect is open to individuals and organisations around the world, whether or not they are Volt members. It helps people take action and enables political representatives to learn directly from society. Connect facilitates introductions and explores opportunities for cooperation; initiative owners remain responsible for leading and delivering their work.

Choose the route that best matches what you have and what you would like to do.
Do you want to share an experience or insight?
Share your story through EuroSense. The SenseMaker tool lets you describe an experience anonymously and explain what it means to you. Your story contributes to a wider picture of what people across Europe are experiencing.
Do you have an early idea or want to discuss a specific topic?
Explore Volt’s European Communities and contact the Community working on your topic. These networks bring together people with lived experience, curiosity and expertise to exchange knowledge, develop initiatives and contribute to policy.
Do you want to develop an initiative or explore collaboration with Volt on an existing one?
Here, “initiative” includes projects, campaigns, events, organisations and other activities seeking support from or collaboration with Volt. Submit your initiative through Connect. We will assess its fit and, where appropriate, route it to the most relevant European Community, national, regional or local Volt Community, existing Volt initiative, elected representative or subject-matter expert. Before submitting, please check that your initiative aligns with Volt’s values and policy positions.
