Protests can significantly influence legislative change by drawing public attention to social issues and mobilizing community action. They create a platform for marginalized voices and can pressure governments to respond to citizens’ demands. The visibility of protests often generates media coverage that shifts public opinion and garners support for specific causes. Lawmakers may feel compelled to introduce or amend legislation in response to public outcry to maintain their political credibility. However, the effectiveness of protests largely depends on their organization, scale, and ability to communicate clear demands to lawmakers.
