Explanation:
Protest2 is a form of individual or collective action aimed at expressing ideas, views,
or values of dissent, opposition, denunciation, or vindication. Examples include the
expression of political, social, or cultural opinions, views, or perspectives; the
vocalization of support or criticism regarding a group, party, or the government itself;
the reaction to a policy or the denunciation of a public problem; the affirmation of
identity or raising awareness about a group’s situation of discrimination and social
exclusion.
2. The right to freedom of expression is strongly interconnected with freedom of
assembly and the right to protest. Assemblies, defined as any intentional and
temporary congregation of a group of people in a private or public space for a specific
purpose,
3 “play a vibrant role in mobilizing the population and in formulating
grievances and aspirations, facilitating the celebration of events and, importantly, in
influencing States’ public policy.”
4 At the same time, the expression of individual and
collective opinions is one of the objectives of any protest.
3. The right to protest is also strongly associated with human rights activities, including
demands for the recognition, protection, or exercise of a right. In many cases, and in
different countries in the region, protests are used to react to specific acts of violence,
evictions, labor issues, or other events that have affected rights. Protests have been a
means to achieve both the raising of the threshold to guarantee fundamental rights at
the national level and the inclusion of a large number of rights in the progressive
development of international human rights law.5
4. Protest is also closely linked to the promotion and defense of democracy. In
particular, the Inter-American Court has recognized that in situations involving a
breakdown of the democratic institutional order, protest should be understood to
“[correspond] not only to the exercise of a right, but also to compliance with the
obligation to defend democracy.”
