When global events create local impact, communications can contribute to the tinderbox or help calm the storm, both internally and externally. Explore how the Victoria Police Department has navigated public pressure, misinformation, and communications over more than 30 weeks of volatile demonstration activity in a capital city that is no stranger to protests. This behind-the-doors discussion will provide useful insight into why words and relationships matter now more than ever.
