The renewed working arrangement with the European Border and Coast Guard Agency (Frontex) builds on a longstanding cooperation between the two agencies. Through this arrangement, FRA will provide its fundamental rights expertise to support Frontex in complying with fundamental rights when working at the EU’s external borders and in return-related activities.
FRA has also signed a new cooperation plan with the EU Agency for the Operational Management of Large-Scale IT Systems in the Area of Freedom, Security and Justice (eu-LISA). The plan focuses on exchanging expertise and know-how on protecting fundamental rights in the digital age as eu-LISA develops and rolls-out its large-scale IT systems.
