  • Provide extra educational support for teachers and extra social support for children with all kinds of disabilities.

  • Promote, support the development of, and expand the accredited European School system into a comprehensive offer, including vocational training, to ensure free access to multilingual, flexible, high-quality, inclusive and internationally competitive education for every child in Europe.

The 5+1 challenges

Volt has defined 5+1 fundamental Challenges that need to be tackled in each European country and in Europe as a whole.

Why 5 + 1 Challenges?

The 5 Challenges are basically the same for every country, but their implementation can be adapted on the national level to take into account local realities.

The +1 Challenge – our proposal to reform and strengthen the EU – is identical across all our national programmes.
