Democracy is under attack — not just from authoritarian leaders, but from corporate giants like #Amazon & #Meta.
They bankroll far-right networks, profit from war & silence unions.

This #WDDW25, workers are saying: enough.
✊ Defend democracy. Demand decent work.

The Dutch government is criminalising migrant workers.

Those who are cleaning homes, caring for children & the elderly.
