The October 17 Movement is a decentralized, grassroots coalition driving a wave of protests across Europe.

A wave of coordinated, local civil unrest under the newly formed October 17 Movement is sweeping Europe. This movement has impacted France and several neighboring nations. 

While specific targets vary by country, the demonstrations continue because of overarching generational frustration, a generational roar against declining living standards. There is no set end date for the unrest, as governments have not resolved the underlying economic pressures and labor or student demands.
