Integrisport Next is a project in its second phase, having already successfully developed (2019-2021) a strong methodology with partner law enforcement organisations in Cyprus, Finland, Hungary, Lithuania, the Netherlands, Portugal, Slovakia.Integrisport Next provides awareness raising and concrete support to law enforcement (LEA) and judicial authorities (JA) of Cyprus, Estonia, Finland, Georgia, Malta and Sweden to fight against sport manipulation and corruption in sport. Through tried and tested methodology and training law enforcement and judicial authorities are facilitated in developing effective approaches to the various facets (sport, betting, virtual currencies) of the phenomenon against the criminals who commit sport manipulation. Developing tight co-operation between private and public organizations at national and transnational level is a key component of the project. Integrisport Next also gives practical support: the Peer-to-peer transnational meetings allow LEA and JA to discuss the use of appropriate investigative techniques and legal instruments at national and international level to be effective in the criminal procedure regarding match fixing. Additionally, the project creates a chance for law enforcement and judiciaries to invite experts to support their criminal procedures with their expertise of law, law enforcement, sport, betting and virtual currencies.The project is coordinated by CSCF Foundation for Sport Integrity and brings together the efforts of the Cyprus Police, Estonian Police, Finnish Center for Integrity in Sports, the Ministry of Education, Science, Culture and Sport of Georgia, Malta Police Force, Swedish Sports Confederation all with the partnership of GLMS and Leuven University, with FIFPro as supporting partner.

EU borders are constantly faced with a multiplicity of challenges, from increased waves of illegal migration to human trafficking, document fraud, terrorism, smuggling, and public health threats. In the CRiTERIA project we will develop a novel risk analysis methodology, which is, on the one hand, clearly rooted and builds upon existing methodology such as CIRAM and, on the other hand introduces novel more complex and effective indicators, which overcome important limitations of existing models. Such extended risk and vulnerability analysis methodology has to be backed by effective intelligent analysis technology. Building upon existing text, media, data and network analysis technology, in CRiTERIA, we will develop and evaluate advanced analysis technologies and tools that are tailored to the new comprehensive threat indicators of the CRiTERIA methodology. Special focus will be put to the consideration of the role of narratives, events, attitudes, and to the vulnerability of borders and humans as well as on providing semi-automatic tools and methods for risk-related evidence validation and explanation, for identifying risk propagation and interlinking, thus supporting decision processes in risk analysis in an innovative way. When developing this holistic CRiTERIA risk and vulnerability analysis framework for border agencies ethical, legal and societal aspects will be considered from the very beginning. The methodology will be developed in close collaboration with practitioners from border agencies, which will also validate the developed methods and technologies in piloting activities. For achieving its goals CRiTERIA brings together an interdisciplinary team of experts including researchers in the fields of security and risk analysis, in the field of data and media analysis and in the field of ethics, law and societal aspects, as well as border agencies, NGOs and companies.

The perception of Europe and individual European countries has a high impact on expectations and decisions of citizens from outside Europe (considering) coming to Europe, especially from countries of origin (COO) for migration. Misperceptions and targeted misinformation campaigns can lead to security threats. It is therefore crucial for border control and other relevant security agencies and policy makers to better understand how Europe is perceived abroad, detect discrepancies between image and reality, spot instances of media manipulation, and develop their abilities for counteracting such misconceptions and the security threats resulting from them. The goal of the MIRROR project is to develop an integrated platform, a set of tools on top of this platform, as well as a systematic methodology for the comprehensive intermedia analysis of the perception of Europe, the detection of discrepancies between perception of and reality in Europe, and the creation of awareness for the impact of such misconceptions and the resulting threats, including hybrid threats. In a process driven by perception-specific threat analysis, the MIRROR project will combine methods of automated text, multimedia and social network analysis for various types of media (including social media) with empirical studies for creating a substantiated picture of the perception of Europe and for combining evidences from different sources. Solutions developed in the project, including technology and actionable insights, will be thoroughly validated with border agencies and policy makers, e.g. via pilots. For achieving its goals, MIRROR brings together a strong multidisciplinary consortium combining research excellence experts in text and multimedia analysis, social network analysis, security research, social science, in particular communication science, law and ethics, gender research with commercial partners and border agencies as well as civil society organizations.

Nowadays when the working tools are changing so fast and knowledge and skills acquired during the basic training are not sufficient through the whole period of the professional life, lifelong learning is indispensable - the police officers is obliged to train and upskill through the whole service. In accordance with the order of the Minister of Internal Affairs dated 19.06.2007 on the specific rules of the training and vocational training on the Police force, the local vocational training is conducted by the police officers having experience, knowledge and skills, and in case it is necessary the instructors certificates. The character of the work of the instructors requires a constant training, exchange of experiences and elaborating the effective teaching models. Recent incidents concerning clumsy police interventions, publicized by the media, provoked the discussion on the police environment, reminding about the necessity of improving the quality of the vocational training, and the results of the control conducted by the Highest Chamber of Control revealed the unsatisfactory realization of the tasks in the scope of improving the professional competences and skills by the police officers.Learning through the observation of the foreign instructors conducting the trainings is one of the most effective learning methods. The participants of the project in the direct contact get to know the work methods of the foreign instructors and the ways of using them in practice. Due to the limited financial means in the Police, the police officers have litlle possibilities to get to know the working methods of the police instructors from other countries, planning methods, methods of conducting the vocational training as well as innovative solutions in the scope of police tactics and techniques.The objective of the project was to improve the quality and effectiveness of the vocational training of the Lublin police as well as the vocational police training on the national and European level through:• improvement of the competences and skills of the police officers in the scope of vocational training thanks to the participation in the educational motilities, in accordance with the idea of the lifelong learning,• introducing the innovative practice learned abroad to the methodology of the trainings and use of the innovative training materials elaborated as the results of the project implementation,• improvement of the language competences and intercultural awarness of the project’s participants • facilitating the professional development of the police officers,• supporting the institutional development of the Regional Police Headquarters in Lublin through the improvement of the methods and techniques of the vocational training,• development of the co-operation between the project’s partners.Project aimed to exchange knowledge and experiences and improve the competences in the scope of methodology of the vocational police training through the organization of the educational mobility for 36 representatives of the staff responsible for the training of the Lublin police garrison officers, in cooperation with Czech, Estonian, Maltese, Cyprus, Lithuanian and German Police.Acquiring knew knowledge and exchange of experiences with the police from other EU countries in the scope of innovative solutions concerning the police training methodology and tactics and techniques of police actions enables to the Lublin police officers learn and then to teach and share the acquired knowledge on the regional level (cascade training), on the national level (seminar summing up the project) and on the international level (participation of six EU member countries)report sent to the liaison officers of foreign police forces accredited in Poland). It will improve the quality of the police vocational training, the effectiveness of the police work and in long term perspective it will improve safety on the regional, national and European. Moreover the realization of the project will promote the lifelong learning idea and Erasmus plus programme.
