Dogs and their handlers will be stationed outside of the Berlaymont, the main Commission building, to display the dog's abilities to search for explosives as well as mine detection equipment. Meet both dogs and trainers. Receive a Virtual Reality police training, placed in real-life situations and with the chance to use your decision-making skills under high stress – just like future police officers do. Europol and Frontex will join us to show improved technology used in their investigations. Use hashtag #EuropeDay to show on your social media of the day. This event takes place at the institutions both in Belgium and across the world.
