Civil protests can lead to policy changes by raising public awareness and pressure on political leaders to address specific issues. When protests articulate a clear message and mobilize significant participation, they can attract media attention and influence public opinion. This heightened visibility often compels policymakers to respond, whether through legislative changes, reforms, or new initiatives. Additionally, sustained protests can challenge the status quo, motivate political discourse, and create a sense of urgency around pressing social issues, paving the way for transformative policy outcomes.
