gevestigd. Het is voor mij een plek van rust waar ik in de zomer graag lees, maar tegelijk een plek met grote historische en democratische betekenis. Als voormalig kandidaat voor de Provinciale Staten voel ik daar een bijzondere band met de publieke verantwoordelijkheid en de waarde van onze democratie.<br><strong>Lievelingsplek in mijn gemeente (en waarom?)<\/strong><br><br><br><strong>Welke kansen zie ik voor Middelburg?<\/strong><br>Middelburg heeft alles in zich om een stad te zijn waar vrijheid, kansen en menselijke maat samenkomen. De grootste kans ligt in het versterken van onze lokale democratie en gemeenschap: een stad waar jongeren perspectief hebben, waar verschillen niet verdelen maar verbinden, en waar bestuur weer dichtbij en betrouwbaar voelt. Door te investeren in gelijke kansen, betrokkenheid en vertrouwen kunnen we Middelburg toekomstbestendig maken zonder haar identiteit te verliezen.<br><br><br><strong>Wat wil ik als raadslid veranderen?<\/strong><br><br><br>\u2022\u00a0<strong>een<\/strong><br>Ik wil dat jongeren structureel worden meegenomen in besluitvorming, niet als symbolische inspraak, maar als volwaardige partners. Jongerenbeleid moet niet over jongeren worden gemaakt, maar m\u00e9t hen.<br><br><br>\u2022\u00a0<strong>twee<\/strong><br>Ik wil werken aan democratische vernieuwing en het herstellen van vertrouwen in de politiek. Dat betekent woord houden, transparant zijn over keuzes en lokale belangen altijd zwaarder laten wegen dan partijpolitiek. De gemeenteraad moet weer zichtbaar, aanspreekbaar en geloofwaardig zijn voor inwoners.<br><br><br>\u2022\u00a0<strong>drie<\/strong><br>Ik wil dat Middelburg toegankelijker en menselijker wordt voor kwetsbare groepen. Dat betekent een gemeente die eerder ondersteunt dan controleert, die vertrouwen geeft in plaats van wantrouwen, en die niemand laat verdwijnen tussen regels en loketten.<br>\t<\/p>\t  <\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t<div class=\"block-post-content__sidebar\">\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\t  <\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n  <\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":705,"featured_media":1095,"menu_order":0,"template":"","labels":[],"search-tags":[],"division-tags":[31],"class_list":["post-658","people-type","type-people-type","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","division-tags-onze-mensen"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>D66 Middelburg &#8212; Onze mensen<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"David Wallast is enthousiast lid van D66 in Middelburg.
