The Knowledge Hub – everything in one place

In line with the Counter-Terrorism Agenda from 2020, this Knowledge Hub has been set up for policy makers, practitioners and researchers to disseminate knowledge and expertise, certify best practices and offer targeted support and guidance to stakeholders at national and local level.

Discover JRC guidance and underlying scientific research in the area of Protection of Public Spaces (PPS).
Most items are directly downloadable. Others many require a justified request.
