Serbian students celebrated a huge victory last week. The student-led protest movement — which lasted for two years — ended the 14-year political dominance of President Aleksandar Vučić. “Protesting is no easy feat,” says lawyer and founder of Mark Your Presence Chaitanya Prabhu, “There are people who are giving up jobs, relationships with families. There is a big sacrifice being made right now.”

“We’re expecting this to be a long fight,” says Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) Spokesperson Sahil Parsekar, referring to India’s ongoing anti-CEC protests which demand the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar over alleged irregularities in voter rolls. If “we’re in the long haul” then how do we make this movement sustainable? What can protestors do to not burnout mentally, physically, or financially, to keep coming back day after day?
