African organizations express deep concern over proposed cuts to development aid by Dutch Minister Reinette Klever, aiming to slash two-thirds of funding for NGOs, totaling around 1 billion euros. Leaders from Mali, Uganda, and Sudan emphasize that Dutch support is vital not only for financial reasons but also for expertise in health, agriculture, and human rights advocacy. They warn that such reductions could lead to catastrophic consequences in regions already grappling with instability, climate challenges, and human rights abuses. The Dutch Parliament is set to debate this contentious issue soon.
