This workshop brings together EU Justice and Home Affairs Agencies (JHAA) and EU partners to strengthen the practical application of the whole‑of‑society approach in internal security and migration. Participants will explore cooperation models that connect institutions, civil society and community actors.

The workshop aims to:

  • Map and advance the practical application of the whole‑of‑society approach across the various areas of expertise of JHA agencies.
  • Explore the role of JHA agencies in mobilising cross‑sectoral cooperation — including public health, law enforcement and community actors — for example through joint capacity‑building and evidence‑based interventions.
  • Identify and promote effective cooperation modalities between JHA agencies and civil society organisations.

This meeting is organised under the EUDA’s one-year presidency of the EU Justice and Home Affairs Agencies’ Network (JHAAN). Under the theme One Safety — building preparedness and resilient communities, the presidency promotes a cross-sector, integrated approach to building a safer, fairer and more resilient EU.
