    Die EU-Mitgliedstaaten beteiligen sich immer häufiger an Maßnahmen des Grenzmanagements auf hoher See, die in oder in Zusammenarbeit mit Drittländern und an den EU Grenzen stattfinden. Derartige Maßnahmen bergen die Gefahr, gegen den Grundsatz der Nichtzurückweisung zu verstoßen. Dieser Eckpfeiler des internationalen Rechtsrahmens für den Schutz von Flüchtlingen verbietet die Rückführung von Personen in ein Land, in dem ihnen Verfolgung droht. Die vorliegenden Leitlinien enthalten konkrete Vorschläge, wie das Risiko der Zurückweisung in solchen Situationen verringert werden kann – ein praktisches Instrument, das unter Mitwirkung von ExpertInnen anlässlich eines Treffens in Wien im März 2016 entwickelt wurde.

Mithilfe von Gesichtserkennungstechnologie können digitale Gesichtsbilder verglichen werden, um festzustellen, ob sie dieselbe Person zeigen. Der Vergleich von Aufnahmen von Videokameras mit Bildern in Datenbanken wird als Live-Gesichtserkennungstechnologie bezeichnet. Nur wenige nationale Strafverfolgungsbehörden in der EU nutzen derzeit eine solche Technologie – doch mehrere erproben ihr Potenzial. Im vorliegenden Fokuspapier werden daher die Auswirkungen der Live-Gesichtserkennungstechnologie im Hinblick auf die Grundrechte untersucht, wobei der Schwerpunkt auf der Nutzung für die Zwecke der Strafverfolgung und des Grenzmanagements liegt.

EU Member States are increasingly involved in border management activities on the high seas, within – or i cooperation with – third countries, and at the EU’s borders. Such activities entail risks of violating the principle of non-refoulement, the cornerstone of the international legal regime for the protection of refugees, which prohibits returning individuals to a risk of persecution. This report aims to encourage fundamental-rights compliant approaches to border management, including by highlighting potential grey areas.
