To safeguard against conflicting requirements, reviews and workshops are effective activities. Reviews allow stakeholders to examine and verify requirements collaboratively, ensuring consensus. Workshops provide a structured forum for stakeholders to discuss, refine, and resolve conflicts in real-time. These activities engage stakeholders directly and help align their perspectives and priorities, reducing the likelihood of conflicting requirements.

C=Reviews and workshops
"Reviews and workshops provide opportunities for stakeholders to collaborate, discuss, and clarify requirements in a structured environment. While item tracking and mind mapping can be useful techniques in organizing and visualizing requirements, they may not directly address the issue of conflicting requirements User stories and scope modeling are valuable techniques for capturing and defining requirements in an Agile environment. However, they may not inherently prevent conflicting requirements from arising. These methods primarily focus on defining the scope and user needs but may not directly address conflicts that arise from differing stakeholder perspectives or priorities. Brainstorming and estimation are creative techniques used to generate ideas and estimate effort, but they may not specifically address conflicting requirements."
