If you are planning to participate or caught up in protests/demonstrations, please follow these tips and always stay safe. Use the below tips even if you are not planning to participate because you may be caught up in the protests unaware. Therefore, if you hear of any planned demonstration near your area please beware of the below tips.
· Beware of the environment where the protests will be held, identify multiple routes to and from the area.
· Go with someone you know and agree on where to meet in case you get separated.
· Let someone you trust who is not involved in the protests know where you are going and if possible, let them know how you are doing.
· Carry water, mask, snacks, tissue, hat, sunglasses, first aid kit, any emergency medications, if you have a medical condition etc.
· Wear comfortable protective shoes/clothes.
· Fully charge your phone and consider bringing an extra battery pack and charger.
· Do not go if you are unwell.
Protests are full of uncertainties' thus, be alert all the time and if you feel unsafe kindly do not go to such areas and if you are already there then find a way of leaving immediately.
