The problem is that, while English sometimes uses movement to mean
"a group of people with a common goal", it does not, at present,
use movement to mean "a series of actions to be taken to achieve
that goal". So, an organization of hikers might be termed a
movement, but the routes along which they are encouraged to hike
would not be termed a movement. After all, the hikers (and the
people organizing the hikers) are the ones moving in both the
physical and metaphorical senses. The routes themselves take no
action.
This tag is more likely to be understood by English-speakers if
you use a less literal translation.
