    Les États membres de l’UE participent de plus en plus à des activités de gestion des frontières en haute mer, sur le territoire de pays tiers, ou en coopération avec ces derniers, ainsi qu’aux frontières de l’UE. Ces activités peuvent comporter des risques de violation du principe de non-refoulement, la pierre angulaire du régime international juridique assurant la protection des réfugiés, qui interdit le retour d’individus vers une situation de risque de persécution. Ces orientations présentent des suggestions spécifiques sur les moyens de réduire les risques de refoulement dans ces situations. Elles constituent un outil pratique élaboré à l’aide de contributions d’experts réunis à Vienne en mars 2016.

    La technologie de reconnaissance faciale permet de comparer des images faciales numériques afin de déterminer s’il s’agit d’une seule et même personne. La comparaison d’images obtenues à partir
    de caméras vidéo avec des images stockées dans des bases de données est appelée «technologie de reconnaissance faciale en temps réel». Les exemples d’autorités répressives nationales de l’Union européenne (UE) utilisant cette technologie sont rares, mais plusieurs d’entre elles testent actuellement son potentiel. Le présent document examine donc les implications en matière de droits fondamentaux de l’utilisation de la technologie de reconnaissance faciale en temps réel, en mettant l’accent sur son utilisation à des fins répressives et de gestion des frontières.

    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.
