- On Tuesday, June 10, we take to the streets again. The attack on higher education continues, but so does our resistance. More than ever, we need visibility, unity, and collective action.
- Strike in Amsterdam June 10! The Dutch cabinet may have fallen, but the future of higher education in the Netherlands is still uncertain. We need to let the caretaker government and all the political parties know that the recently adopted budget with its drastic cuts to higher ed cannot stand...
- The KNAW has issued a stark warning: academic freedom is at risk in the Netherlands due to increasing political interference in research and education. The planned budget cuts are part of a broader attack on higher education. We must stand firm in rejecting the erosion of academic autonomy.

- 1,500 strong at the Vrijthof! As Janosch Prinz powerfully articulated: "Today we witnessed remarkable solidarity across our entire academic community. Students, scientific and support staff stood shoulder to shoulder, sending an unmistakable message to The Hague."
- "Scientists and support staff stood united today in Maastricht. No critical thinking without practical strength." ✊ #WOinACTIE #DefendMaastrichtUniversity #KabinetSlooptHogerOnderwijs #StakingHO
