The European Commission has published a success story about ENACT showing how the project has connected Europe’s fragmented research on fighting crime and terrorism.
The article, “Connecting Europe’s crime-fighting knowledge”, is on the Commission’s Research and Innovation projects portal. It looks at what the network achieved between September 2023 and August 2026.
The article highlights:
- The ENACT Knowledge Repository, a public, searchable database with more than 2,000 stakeholders and 1,700 observations. Users can filter it by crime area, such as cybercrime, or by technology, such as data analytics.
- More than 20 analytical reports on emerging technologies, operational needs, policy and innovation. Topics include a decade of EU security research priorities, the impact of AI on victims of crime, and youth criminality.
- Support for innovators: up to €120,000 invested in 12 solutions, including winners and runners-up of the Security Innovation Award and the Europol Excellence Awards in Innovation.
- Events and outreach, including annual events, workshops and networking activities.
