Crisis Response Checklist: Community Protests at Mining Sites

Covers five sequential elements: immediate safety assessment, establishing a direct communication channel between decision-makers, securing a short-term interim agreement, triaging critical information, and mapping key stakeholders and potential spoilers. Designed to be used on the ground, under pressure, when the priority is stabilisation, not resolution.
