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.

Autoship - a new and durable way of freight transport

Autoship is, as the name suggests, an acronym for autonomous ship. Just like with self-driving cars, the possibilities of an unmanned boat seem endless. It can create more efficient freight transport, around the clock deliveries and these are just a few of the examples. The project has two societal challenges.

At first, De Vlaamse Waterweg was a bit hesitant as their experience with FP7 or Horizon 2020 projects was limited and they had not been very successful up until then. The fact that they were already doing basic research on the topic of autonomous boats, and the administrative help of NCP FLanders helped De Vlaamse waterweg to cross the line and get involved.
