Practical Guidance for Ensuring Peaceful Protests
RAND
2026.07.03
Protest dynamics and outcomes can be influenced by many stakeholders ― including local government agencies, law enforcement, community groups and members, and media ― and external issues (e.g., an acute event that sparks protests both within and outside the community). In this report, the authors focus specifically on considerations for how law enforcement and community stakeholders can prepare for, engage in, and process the aftereffects of protest events. This report presents strategies about how to improve processes before, during, and after protests to contribute to more-desirable outcomes. Promoting peaceful protests is an ongoing process that depends on partnership, preparation, and reflection. By applying the strategies outlined in this report and maintaining dialogue even in difficult moments, communities and law enforcement can work together to uphold both public safety and the rights of peaceful assembly and protest. Police-community engagement is not a one-size-fits-all approach and should be adapted to suit local contexts.
