Borders and border management are increasingly important topics for the Europe. The need for research and development activities in these domains is growing. Since September 2023, the Estonian Academy of Security Sciences (EASS) has been implementing the project supported by Frontex focusing on the application of unmanned aircraft systems for border management. The EASS has also initiated the development of the Border Management Advancement Hub in Narva to interlink better practice, research, innovation and teaching experiences.
15th of August 2024 the EASS organised an inspiration day in Narva Study Centre that aimed to introduce the results of the project and to discuss on the needs and opportunities for research and development initiatives in border management.
