The University of Manitoba has shared the results of the communication protocols review that it launched last Fall following an unsubstantiated report of an armed person on campus. The review identified opportunities for improvement in three areas: communications, education, and infrastructure. Recommendations include increasing the adoption of the institution’s safety app, finding ways to expedite communication during an emergency, offering training in partnership with the Winnipeg Police Service, and updating the institution’s CCTV system. UManitoba added that several recommendations have either already been implemented across campus or are planned for 2025.
