Innledning
In numerous countries, protests aim to promote particular agendas and achieve specific goals. Protests are primarily geared towards a specific issue in society.

A recent example is when Greta Thunberg joins protestors at a "climate justice memorial" in October 2021. Protests sometimes result in the desired outcome.

However, in some instances, protests have not achieved their goal. Protestors must create awareness and attention to their issue to be successful.

On most occasions, protests need to be heard by the people in authority. In circumstances where the government does not respond to the needs of the people, protests are powerful to get the government's attention.

As a result, this can increase the chances of making a change in policy by the government. Is it worth marching in protests whenever we seek policy change, or should it be handled differently?

Utdrag
Above all, protests and demonstrations are great methods to show the political elite that the public is not pleased with political decisions or dealings in general. Importantly, as protestors, it is vital to show that one is dedicated and has not lost humanity.

Try to avoid harm and be empathetic in the circumstances. For example, the Velvet Revolution in Armenia. There were protestors blocking traffic and causing inconvenience to the drivers.

Most movement members walked among the drivers and asked if they needed to be somewhere in case of an emergency. Following this, understand what is about to happen when entering a protest.

Effective Activist claims that the movement members should follow protest restrictions and choose nonviolent tactics to make it as successful as possible.

Mainly to reduce the chances of anyone being hurt, causing significant damage, or even delaying someone in an emergency.

To summarize, one should take part in controlled protests. It can be beneficial for the individual and society.

Another reason is long-lasting issues in society or when human rights are at risk. The importance of protests is to keep oneself to the restrictions and stay away from violence and any particular harm in general.

Nonetheless, showing that something is not working and expressing one's frustrations in protests is an excellent way of telling the political nobility.
