The 15 May Movement, also known as the "15M Movement" or "Los Indignados," emerged in Spain in May 2011 as a response to economic crisis, high unemployment, and political corruption. It was characterized by mass protests and occupations, particularly in city squares, advocating for democratic reforms, social justice, and greater political accountability. The movement inspired similar protests worldwide and played a significant role in shaping contemporary social movements in Europe. Its emphasis on grassroots organization and direct democracy continues to influence activism today.
