Eurostat Working Group on Crime and Criminal Justice Statistics

FRA took part in the annual meeting of the Working Group on Crime and Criminal Justice Statistics. FRA gave a presentation at the meeting.

It informed participants about recent FRA results and relevant ongoing projects. This included an update on various FRA surveys as well as other projects collecting data on victims of crime in the EU. Participants reviewed plans for the collection of administrative data on crime and criminal justice systems.

There was also a discussion on the progress of the EU survey on gender-based violence against women, and the contribution of FRA and EIGE to collect comparable survey data on violence against women in eight EU Member States. This will complement the data collected by the national authorities in other EU Member States.

The meeting was online from 7 to 8 March.
