Mahatma Gandhi led peaceful protests primarily in India, advocating for civil rights and independence from British colonial rule. Notable movements included the Salt March in 1930, which challenged British salt laws, and the Quit India Movement in 1942, calling for an end to British rule. His philosophy of nonviolent resistance also inspired various civil rights movements globally.

Why would you do a report to see if Peaceful Protests worked or not?

Because it would be interesting to find out, for one. Changes have been brought about in recent history by peaceful protests (the Civil Rights movement in the US) as well as by violent protests (Ukraine). You could - among other things - try and find out which kind was used when, and to what effect; whether there were underlying factors that made protests work by being peaceful or violent; and what kind of changes were the subject of violent and peaceful protest respectively. In short, you might learn something yourself.
