manifestar-se/apresentar


Explanation:
Sugestão, especialmente porque, segundo o dicionário Cambridge, pode se tratar de ajuda ou apresentar-se diante de uma determinada situação.

Example sentence(s):
  • Nobody has come forward yet with information about the accident.
  • Ninguém ainda se manifestou com informações sobre o acidente. / Ninguém ainda apresentou informações sobre o acidente.

dar a cara


Explanation:
https://www.babylon-software.com/define/116/English-to-Portu...

dar a cara

enfrentar a situação, assumir a responsabilidade
https://www.infopedia.pt/dicionarios/lingua-portuguesa/cara

Eu vejo o contexto como "enfrentar a situação", mas posso estar errada.
Também não sei se "dar a cara" é uma expressão que seja usada em pt-br.
Espero que ajude de alguma forma.
