29.08.2025The day women claimed the night
The day's Dutch media reports highlighted the ongoing national focus on women's safety. Early coverage emphasized the need for men to adapt behavior for safer environments (NRC). This theme gained prominence in the late afternoon and evening, with Het Parool detailing women's historical and contemporary struggle to reclaim public spaces at night. A tangible societal response emerged as NRC reported a surge in downloads of a French app, "The Sorority," in the Netherlands, designed to help women in unsafe situations, directly linking to the societal impact of the Lisa murder investigation from previous days. Concurrently, the Council of State issued critical advice on the Asylum Emergency Measures Act, leading the cabinet to adapt the law to prevent criminalizing aid workers for humanitarian help, amidst diminishing Senate support. Separately, concerns were raised regarding the completion of the parliamentary corona inquiry due to impending elections.
