Human Rights Workout

Be aware that camera lenses and filming equipment can be misidentified as a threat by security forces.

Ignore verbal ‘bait' from passers-by or counter protesters. Do not get into unnecessary arguments.

If caught in a fleeing crowd, attempt to identify ways to escape perpendicular to the flow of traffic. Know your escape route in advance.

Have a pre-arranged “safe zone” or meeting point where you and your friends can meet if separated.

Carry a bicycle helmet to avoid head injuries if the authorities use force.

Remain calm and compliant if stopped by the authorities.
