Restrictions on the right to peaceful protest have increased significantly, but in many cases are applied selectively to pro-Palestine and climate protests only.

The comprehensive analysis, a collaboration of 37 human rights organisations covering 19 EU countries, is the most in-depth &#8216;shadow reporting&#8217; exercise on the rule of law to date by an independent civil liberties network. The European Commission takes these findings into account in its annual monitoring of the rule of law, confirming the international relevance of the report.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Liberties also published a country report specifically for the Netherlands, which can be read <a href=\"https:\/\/dq4n3btxmr8c9.cloudfront.net\/files\/ntd6fv\/NETHERLANDS_Liberties_RuleOfLaw_Report_2024.pdf\">here<\/a>. The report shows that the right to demonstrate is also under pressure in the Netherlands: &#8216;Municipalities regularly introduce restrictions or conditions to organisers of protests that are not proportionate to the scale of the protests,&#8217; and &#8216;The use of force by the police during peaceful protests has also been a worrying trend.&#8217;<\/p>\n<h3>About Liberties<\/h3>\n<p>The Civil Liberties Union for Europe (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.liberties.eu\/en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Liberties<\/a>) is a Berlin-based civil liberties group with member organisations across 19 countries in the EU campaigning on human and digital rights issues including the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.liberties.eu\/en\/campaigns\/rule-of-law-report-2023\/158\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">rule of law<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.liberties.eu\/en\/campaigns\/media-freedom-report-2023\/199\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">media freedom<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.liberties.eu\/en\/campaigns\/ngo-messaging-guide-defence-of-democracy\/166\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">civic space<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.liberties.eu\/en\/campaigns\/slapp-stopslapp-watchdogs-media-freedom\/35\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SLAPPs<\/a>, privacy,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.liberties.eu\/en\/campaigns\/ban-sensitive-data-for-political-advertising\/200\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">targeted advertising<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.liberties.eu\/en\/campaigns\/ai-rule-of-law-open-letter\/202\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">AI and mass surveillance<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>As of 1 January 2024, PILP has joined Liberties as a new member organisation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On March 18 2024, the Civil Liberties Union for Europe (Liberties) published their annual Rule of Law report.
