Jacobine Geel has stepped down as the chair of the College for the Rights of Man following a critical report regarding her leadership. The report, released this summer, highlighted issues of intimidation and exclusion. Although no pattern of discrimination was found, Geel was deemed ‘not sufficiently competent’ in her role. The future of the human rights institute remains uncertain, with only four members currently serving, well below the required nine. Geel expressed sadness over her departure but emphasized the need for unobstructed leadership.
