Łukasz Szklarski participated in the annual Projects to Policy Seminar (PPS) in Brussels, hosted by the European Research Executive Agency (REA) and DG HOME. This event convenes coordinators of new civil security research projects, offering them a platform to engage with policymakers and stakeholders from various EU agencies, including Frontex, EU-LISA, Europol, DG HOME, DG ECHO, and REA.
During the seminar, which started with a plenary session featuring presentations by EU agency representatives, the coordinator presented the CHIMERA project. CHIMERA, which utilizes advanced data fusion and AI applications to enhance security, aligns well with EU policy priorities. The presentation highlighted the project’s potential to impact security measures positively.
Additionally, the seminar facilitated breakout sessions and discussions, fostering cross-cooperation among the attendees. One of the focal points was the upcoming EU AI Act and its implications for security research, exploring responsible and effective AI utilization under new regulations.
The Projects to Policy Seminar serves as a crucial platform for aligning innovative research objectives with evolving policy needs, ensuring that projects like CHIMERA address contemporary security challenges effectively. Thank you for having us!
