This paper provides an overview of criminal investigations and other legal proceedings initiated by European Union (EU) Member States against civil society organisations deploying search and rescue vessels and aircraft in the Mediterranean and/or against individual crew members. The latest update covers the period from 2018 up until the end of May 2024.

    The European Convention on Human Rights and European Union law provide an increasingly important framework for the protection of the rights of foreigners. European Union legislation relating to asylum, borders and immigration is developing fast. There is an impressive body of case law by the European Court of Human Rights relating in particular to Articles 3, 5, 8 and 13 of the ECHR. The Court of Justice of the European Union is increasingly asked to pronounce on the interpretation of European Union law provisions in this field. The third edition of this handbook, updated up to July 2020, presents this European Union legislation and the body of case law by the two European courts in an accessible way.

The EU Return Directive (2008/115/EC) in Article 8 (6) introduced an important fundamental rights safeguard for third-country nationals ordered to leave the EU because they do not or no longer fulfil the conditions for entry and/or stay. According to the directive, Member States must provide for an effective forced-return monitoring system.

This report is the EU Fundamental Rights Agency’s fourth on the topic of severe labour exploitation. Based on interviews with 237 exploited workers, it paints a bleak picture of severe exploitation and abuse. The workers include both people who came to the EU, and EU nationals who moved to another EU country. They were active in diverse sectors, and their legal status also varied.
Fundamental Rights Report 2019: Not all children benefit equally from efforts to guarantee child rights.
Some groups face particular difficulties.
Fundamental Rights Report 2019: Although migrant arrivals to the EU continue to drop, it remains a divisive issue politically and
across society. Nearly 4 in 10 Europeans think immigration is more of a problem than a solution.
And nearly a half overestimate the number of irregular migrants in their country.

In 2018, some 2,299 people are estimated to have died or gone missing at sea while crossing the sea to reach Europe to escape war or persecution or to pursue a better life. This is on average more than six people per day. Before mid-2017, a significant share of migrants in distress at sea have been rescued by civil society vessels deployed with a humanitarian mandate to reduce fatalities and bring rescued migrants to safety. In 2018, however, authorities in some Member States viewed civil society-deployed rescue vessels with hostility. As a reaction, they seized rescue vessels, arrested crew members, and initiated legal procedures against them (more than a dozen altogether). In some cases, rescue vessels were blocked in harbours due to flag issues.

Cieľom príručky Deti bez rodičovskej starostlivosti nachádzajúce sa v inom členskom štáte EÚ, ako
je ich vlastný, je posilniť schopnosť reagovať všetkých príslušných subjektov v oblasti ochrany detí.
Ochrana týchto dievčat a chlapcov je prvoradou povinnosťou členských štátov EÚ, ktorá vyplýva
z medzinárodného a európskeho právneho rámca. Táto príručka sa zameriava na detské obete
obchodovania s ľuďmi a ohrozené deti, čím sa realizuje opatrenie stanovené v Oznámení o posilnení
opatrení EÚ zameraných na boj proti obchodovaniu s ľuďmi z roku 2017, a zohľadňuje určené
charakteristiky, a to aj s ohľadom na rodovú špecifickosť tejto trestnej činnosti.

V tejto príručke sa vysvetľuje, čo je profilovanie, akými právnymi rámcami sa riadi, a prečo vykonávanie profilovania v súlade so zákonom je nutné na dodržiavanie základných práv, ako aj na účely efektívnej policajnej práce a riadenia hraníc.
