Community participation framework · version 1.0

Recognition principles and fulfilment

A clear framework for optional acknowledgements, educational benefits and responsible participation.

Relevant and lawful

Eligibility

Participation remains subject to applicable law, supported jurisdictions, sanctions controls and the nature of the proposed contribution.

Practical and proportionate

Digital resources

Badges, toolkits and learning material are provided where relevant to the agreed form of participation and available program capacity.

Controlled by the contributor

Public recognition

Names, organisations and social acknowledgements appear only after approval and may be removed on request.

Privacy comes first

Information boundaries

Recognition never includes access to victim identities, case evidence, wallet information, private findings or internal decision-making.

No implied certification

Use of names and logos

Acknowledgement records a contribution. It does not imply endorsement, certification, exclusivity or approval of a contributor's products or services.

Reviewed over time

Availability and changes

Recognition options may evolve with program capacity. Material terms are agreed before participation and important changes are communicated clearly.

Findings remain independent

Fair-use protection

Support or recognition cannot change forensic conclusions, eligibility decisions, evidence standards, legal limitations or third-party actions.
