Dutch government appoints #MeToo commissioner
By EUobserver
The Dutch government appointed a commissioner Tuesday to tackle sexual abuse after recent high-profile #MeToo cases, AP reported. "Recent incidents in the sports and television world show us that the reason for the #MeToo movement in our country is still alive. This must change," said education minister Robbert Dijkgraaf. The government-appointed former MP, Mariëtte Hamer, is tasked with creating an action plan to tackle sexually-inappropriate behaviour and sexual violence.
