Tamarod

Tamarod, meaning "Rebel" in Arabic, was a grassroots movement in Egypt that emerged in 2013 to oppose President Mohamed Morsi's government. It organized petitions, protests, and mass demonstrations to demand Morsi's resignation, citing issues like economic decline and perceived authoritarianism. The movement gathered millions of signatures, boosting public pressure and contributing to the political upheaval that eventually led to Morsi's ousting. Tamarod exemplified how collective citizen action could influence political change through peaceful protest and civic engagement.
