Eurojust Annual Report 2017

Abstract:

In a complex world with increasing security threats and evolving political and legislative landscapes, the need for unity has never been so urgent. More and more, Eurojust has focused its work towards contributing to that unity by building and consolidating strong partnerships with all Member States and EU institutions, bodies and agencies to ensure security and justice for our fellow European citizens.

Year 2017 was a year of significant achievements and changes at Eurojust.

We welcomed the election of new College Presidency members and the appointment of a new Administrative Director. The implementation of a new organisational structure for the Administration and simplification of the College’s substructures and decision-making processes completed an institutional reform designed to make Eurojust a more solid, efficient and sustainable organisation. An organisation better equipped to fulfil its mission to serve as the European home to the thousands of national prosecutors and law enforcement officials who – every day, everywhere in Europe – work hard to fight all forms of criminality, especially in our priority crime areas: terrorism, cybercrime, migrant smuggling and trafficking in human beings.
