The Lisbon Camp announced a new protest scheduled for this Saturday, following a similar model that drew thousands last weekend. The decision was made during a popular assembly held at Rossio, where demonstrators discussed the continuation of their actions.

The protest is set to begin at 4 PM at Largo de Camões. Following the march, participants plan to return to Rossio, where they will set up tents and spend the night in the square, as they have done on previous occasions.

The Lisbon Camp movement has been organizing regular protests to ensure visibility for their causes. The format of the march and tent setup has been a strategy to keep attention focused on their demands.

Specific details regarding the demands to be presented at Saturday's protest have not yet been disclosed, but organizers continue to emphasize the importance of this type of mobilization for expressing their social concerns.

The activities at Rossio have attracted the attention of security services and civil society, particularly due to the way housing and urban rights issues have been addressed in Lisbon. The Lisbon Camp underscores the ongoing public support as an indicator of the relevance of its struggles.

New developments are expected regarding the protest and the response from local authorities, as the fight for better living conditions and social justice remains a central theme in current social discussions in Portugal.
