A recent legal precedent now allows single Moroccan mothers to apply for asylum in the Netherlands if they face a real risk of criminal prosecution in their home country. This decision by the Dutch Council of State primarily prioritizes the best interests of the child. In its ruling, the court upheld the appeal of a woman whose initial application had been rejected in 2023.
The National Federation of the Agricultural Sector (FNSA) and the public utility NGO CETIM have announced they will appeal to UN mechanisms to challenge the organic law on strikes, which was passed by the Moroccan Parliament in February. The unions that participated in the general strike in response to this law point to insufficient guarantees of this right in the text.
