## Practices

> * Conduct data protection impact assessments (DPIAs) using frameworks like GDPR or OECD guidelines to identify and mitigate privacy risks before DPI implementation.
> * Hold public consultations on DPIA findings, involving stakeholders such as civil society, the private sector, and affected communities to gather feedback and build consensus.
> * Publish the DPIA results and ensure transparency by creating public reports.
