In the wake of mass demonstrations across the United States’ college campuses and anticipation of demonstrations related to the 2024 U.S. elections, many police leaders are looking to improve their planning for and response to public disorder. Panelists will explain the evidence-based approach to public order policing, including dynamic risk assessment, crowd psychology, community dialogue teams, de-escalation, and how demonstration policing can enhance (or hinder) perceptions of police legitimacy and public trust.
