On 1-2 March, FRA hosted the Greek Fundamental Rights Officer for a two-day induction meeting.

FRA shared experiences from its work, discussed legal and methodological questions, shared findings from its past and ongoing research and provided an overview of available FRA handbooks and tools.

The meeting covered fundamental rights at borders, fundamental rights safeguards in Frontex’ activities, identification and registration of migrants and asylum applicants, immigration detention and related fundamental rights matters.

Appointed in December 2022, the Fundamental Rights Officer is responsible for monitoring the procedures and implementation of fundamental rights safeguards in Greek, EU and international legislation relating to borders and international protection.
