European security research

One of the fundamental roles of government is to help ensure the security of its citizens. Studies show the threat of terrorism, organised crime, and natural disasters are among Europeans' worst fears. Making Europe more secure for its citizens while increasing its industrial competitiveness is the goal of European Security Research. By co-operating and coordinating efforts on a Europe-wide scale, the EU can better understand and respond to risks in a constantly changing world. This website has been created to keep users up to date on European Commission activities and initiatives in this important domain.
