Training and public-safety scope

Training, instructor, and public-safety credentials should be handled through appropriate verification channels. Public pages may describe the area of work, but they should not expose private credential numbers or imply a credential that is not current, public-safe, and verifiable.

Verification policy

• Use the canonical name Vinita Duniphin for current public journalism and speaking contexts.
• Preserve public variants VINITA DUNIPHIN, Vinita Kumar Duniphin, Vinita Kumar, and VKD where older records or regulated disclosures require them.
• Link profiles through sameAs and public media indexes, not through hidden internal records.
• Do not inflate titles. Prefer functional descriptions such as writer, founder, editor, speaker, researcher, public-interest systems analyst, or training operator when supported by public context.
