Your role in this project is that of a professional event planner who is planning an upcoming event. You can select an event that interests you, such as a sporting event, concert, fair, festival, cultural, governmental, or political event. The only restriction is this event cannot be a social event (wedding, private party, milestone event, etc.). You are responsible for ensuring the safety of all stakeholders of this hypothetical event in your community and need to devise a plan to reduce the risks associated with your event. Note that risks are unique to each event and community, no two are alike. Your goal with this plan is to avoid any crisis at the event and within your community.

To achieve this goal and as an event planner, you will create a risk management plan for your chosen event. You will identify the stakeholders and the risks associated with this event, providing protocols to minimize each risk in order to protect stakeholders and the event itself. When working on your plan, remember that you need to communicate your plan to minimize risk to all your constituents in an effective and straightforward manner prior to the execution of the event. Note that visuals, such as a risk management matrix and other venue diagrams, easily communicate your thoughts to stakeholders.
