Usage Note
Movilizar means to mobilize people, resources, or forces for a purpose — used in military, political, and social contexts. The reflexive movilizarse is common for grassroots organizing: la sociedad civil se movilizó. It follows the -zar spelling rule: the z changes to c before e (movilicé, movilicemos). The noun is movilización.
