Volt's vision for food in Europe
Food is one of the most important topics to Europe’s political project. It’s the foundation of our health, and one of the most powerful tools to shape our society and the landscape we live in. A full table is the cornerstone of family feasts, parties, and events; it brings together people and sparks conversations across generations and cultures.
But the world is changing fast. Geopolitical instability, rising inequality, climate disruption, and ecological collapse all demand urgent political choices. More than ever, Europe needs a coherent food policy which requires strategic choices that challenge the current status quo.
Today’s food policies shape the lives of millions across the value chain and affect the health of people and planet alike. The alarming rise in food-related diseases, coupled with unsustainable production patterns, is a clear signal: Europe must act. It is time for policymakers to take responsibility and lead. That's why we wrote a comprehensive food vision that brings forward concrete policy proposals. You can find it here.
