"Goed mondiaal waterbeheer is meer dan een technische beleidskwestie. Het is bovenal een politieke kwestie, die gaat over hoe we de beperkte hoeveelheid zoetwater op de wereld het eerlijkst verdelen."

We have serious objections to both the content and the possible repercussions of this proposed legislation.

We are joining the thousands of human rights organisations, activists, lawyers and concerned citizens who have voiced their concerns and calls for the withdrawal of the bill.

Protesting a genocide isn't terrorism! ❌

The Dutch government has submitted a draft bill that would make “glorifying terrorism and publicly expressing support for terrorist organisations” a criminal offence.

The proposed law actually poses a threat to people committed to peace and justice.
