Tamarod Movement

The Tamarod Movement was a political campaign in Egypt launched in 2013, calling for the resignation of President Mohamed Morsi. It organized a nationwide petition and protests, arguing that Morsi's government was illegitimate and needed to be replaced due to economic issues and political unrest. The movement gained rapid support, leading to mass demonstrations that contributed to Morsi’s ouster later that year. Tamarod, meaning "Rebellion" in Arabic, played a crucial role in Egypt’s political transition, exemplifying grassroots activism aimed at demanding change through collective action and civic engagement.
