🚨 The Dutch govt's funding cuts to sexual & reproductive health, gender equality, and human rights programs threaten vital global progress. At a time when anti-rights movements are growing, we must stay resilient and unified. Let’s push forward together!

It is clear: now is a key moment in #globalhealth and #SRHR. We hope that the Dutch government is on the right side of history and invests in global rights, health, and safety! Thank you to everyone for joining! How are you going to commit to global health and SRHR? #NLforHealth
Mukumi Marete (UHAI) spoke about the health and safety of marginalized groups: “People do not want to be refugees; they do not want to seek asylum, the environment has forced people out of their communities.” These communities are at risk if Dutch funding is cut.
#NLforHealth
The criminalizing laws we are seeing chase people away from life-saving treatment, and this has a broad impact on eroding human rights for all, not just marginalized groups. We must stay aware, stand, and support groups fighting for safety, health, and democracy.

Mukami Marete of UHAI and Jelle Postma of Justice for Prosperity discuss the importance of Dutch leadership on #SRHR in light of pushback.
Mukumi Marete: “LGBTIQ+ people and sex workers are canaries in the coal mine for democratic erosion.”

Femke Zeedijk of @NwSocContract: "I am concerned about the interconnection between anti-rights and democratic backsliding. We should keep our leadership role as the Netherlands." #NLforHealth
ALT Femke Zeedijk of NSC at the MPI event
Our final speaker of the first session Jelle Postma of Justice for Prosperity spoke about how SRHR is weaponized to raise social fears because fear is essential to the anti-rights movement’s power. It is up to us working in #SRHR to take that weapon away from them!
#NLforHealth
We need to work together to strengthen our movement to fight fear and hate otherwise, our lives and democracies are at risk. These are global issues that affect all of us. What do you think we need to do to come together and beat the anti-rights movement?

Session 1 has started! @bethAsully of @Guttmacher is presenting on how the Dutch have been a global leader in family planning and HIV, with major impacts. Dutch funding of SRHR saves and changes lives.
#NLforHealth
In 2024 Dutch funding provided 8.5 million women and families with family planning and averted 2.6 million unintended pregnancies. For more please look at the report by @Guttmacher to see not only the impact of Dutch funding but the risks if that funding is cut.
