Road of the Revolution Front

The Road of the Revolution Front – Revolutionaries (Arabic: جبهة طريق الثورة - ثوار‎‎), also translated as Way of the Revolution Front and Revolution Path Front, is an Egyptian political movement created in September 2013 by leftist and liberal activists in order to achieve the goals of the Egyptian Revolution of 2011 of bread, freedom and social justice.

The Road of the Revolution Front was founded on 24 September 2013 in Cairo. Amongst its 152 founding members were many well-known personalities such as political activist Alaa Abd El-Fattah, novelist Ahdaf Soueif, April 6 Youth Movement co-founder Ahmed Maher, labour lawyer Haitham Mohamedain of the Revolutionary Socialists, economist Wael Gamal, leftist activist Wael Khalil and Human Rights lawyer Gamal Eid. It includes members of the April 6 Youth Movement, the Revolutionary Socialists, the April 6 Democratic Front and the Strong Egypt Party.

In its founding statement, the Front asserted: "It has been two-and-a-half years since the revolution began and Egyptians have not yet achieved their dream of building a new republic that will provide them with democracy, justice and equality." It added: "Millions have taken to the streets twice; once in January 2011 to topple Mubarak's regime, which was based on corruption and oppression ... and a second time in June 2013, forcing Mohamed Morsi to step down after losing legitimacy as a result of the Brotherhood's attempts to monopolise political life and rebuild an oppressive system."

According to Wael Gamal, the aim of the front is to work for the redistribution of wealth, achieve social justice, combat the formation of an oppressive regime, achieve equality between citizens, set the path for transitional justice and adopt foreign policies that guarantee national independence. Ahmed Maher asserted that "the revolution's goals are being forgotten and hence there is a need for this front".
