This thematic workshop of the Community for European Research and Innovation for Security (CERIS) aims at discussing missing persons.

In an era of rapid technological advancement, innovative tools such as artificial intelligence, biometric databases, and real-time data-sharing platforms can significantly enhance the ability of law enforcement and other relevant actors to track and identify missing persons more efficiently. This workshop aims to explore the complexities of the missing persons phenomenon, highlight the importance of multi-agency collaboration, and examine the role of research and innovation and the exploitation of existing and emerging technologies in strengthening search and recovery efforts.
