The Movement is the debut extended play by Betty Who, an Australian pop singer. The extended play was self-released on 16 April 2013 as a free download.
The EP received favorable reviews from several magazines and blogs upon release. Idolator described the EP as "A spine-tinglingly euphoric 80's pop nugget," Indie pop blog All Things Go claimed she was "charting new musical territory," and the UK outlet Popjustice called it "the best proper EP so far of 2013."Elle Magazine named her "Your Next Pop Obsession" on 5 August 2013, and TIME chose Newham as one of 14 Musical Acts To Watch in 2014.
On 15 September 2013, it was announced Who had signed with RCA Records. The EP was re-released digitally via RCA Records on 17 September 2013.
Sam Lanky from Idolator gave the EP a positive review saying; "The four-track EP is led by single "Somebody Loves You," a spine-tinglingly euphoric '80s pop nugget with a singalong chorus catchier than most of what's on mainstream radio. Weirder still is that the other three tracks are equally impressive: The luminous "You're In Love" evokes the new Tegan and Sara album, while "Right Here" is dreamily lush; "High Society" is an injection of New Order synthpop with a rich, cinematic chorus. It's absolutely perfect pop, and it's absolutely — incredibly!"
The songs "Somebody Loves You" and "High Society" were included on Betty Who's debut album, Take Me When You Go (2014).
The extended play debuted at number 22 on the Billboard Heatseekers Album chart for the week commencing 26 April 2014.
