Tiroler ÖVP adopts new principles and regional membership model
The Tiroler ÖVP held a fundamental party congress in Innsbruck to establish its first independent principle program, titled “Aus eigener Kraft” (By Our Own Strength). The party aims to emancipate itself from federal politics by emphasizing regional values such as property, achievement, family, and security.
A key structural change involves a new statute allowing for a “Tirol membership.” This would enable individuals to become members of the Tiroler ÖVP exclusively, without being automatically affiliated with the federal ÖVP.
During the congress, delegates unanimously approved economic policy chapters. These chapters anchor principles of entrepreneurship, open markets, and economic freedom as foundations for prosperity. Party representatives emphasized a commitment to the principle of achievement and a desire for reduced bureaucracy, advocating for the stance of “as much freedom as possible, as much state as necessary.”
