Fasting Protests

Fasting protests are non-violent demonstrations where individuals refuse to eat to draw attention to a cause or demand change. Participants use their prolonged hunger as a symbolic act to highlight issues like injustice, corruption, or human rights violations. The act of fasting aims to attract media and public attention, pressuring authorities to respond. These protests can be powerful, emphasizing moral conviction and sacrifice, and often require careful planning to ensure participants' health and safety.
