Programmes SecurityUnder the Horizon Europe: Cluster 3 - Civil Security for Society programme, managed by the European Research Executive Agency, police authorities are not just passive recipients of research outcomes. Instead, they play an active and pivotal role as participants in EU projects.
In security research projects, law enforcement authorities collaborate closely with academia and industry to ensure that project outcomes effectively address capability gaps and operational needs.
In an interview, Lieutenant-Colonel Daniel Camara, who works at the French Gendarmerie’s Centre for Forensic Artificial Intelligence, gave 3 valuable tips on how law enforcement authorities can maximise the benefits of their participation in an EU research project:

The Miricle project, ‘Mine Risk Clearance for Europe’, obtained funding under the European Defence Industrial Development programme call ‘Underwater control contributing to resilience at sea’. The main objective of the project was to achieve a European and sovereign capacity in future mine warfare and create a path for the next generation ‘made in Europe’ countermeasure solutions. In order to realise this objective, Miricle addressed various stages: studies, design, prototyping and testing. These stages inter alia included the successful testing of an XL Unmanned Underwater Vehicle, a protototyped mine disposal system and multiple innovative systems to detect buried mines. Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ), was one of the five Belgian partners in the consortium. Within the project, VLIZ was able to forward its research on the acoustic imaging of the seabed to spatially map and visualize buried structures and objects - in this case buried mines - in the highest possible detail. VLIZ also led the work on ‘Port and Offshore Testing’, building on the expertise of the institute in the field of marine operations and technology.
