Funding Home Affairs
Overview
A more open and secure Europe requires adequate funding that is directed to those policy areas where we are facing collective challenges. Part of EU funding must also be dedicated to agencies and large-scale IT systems, which play a key role in implementing operational cooperation between EU States.
+Migration, Asylum and Borders
EU countries have set up a common approach to migration management, underpinned by the General Programme "Solidarity and the Management of Migration Flows".
+Security and safeguarding liberties
The Framework Programme "Security and Safeguarding Liberties" promotes effective European cross-border cooperation in the fight against crime and terrorism and improved crime prevention. Activities are supported through two specific financial programmes: "Prevention, Preparedness and Consequence Management of Terrorism and other Security-related Risks (CIPS)" and "Prevention of and Fight against Crime (ISEC)".
