In the context of Eurocrim2016, EuroCrime organizes a Session during Panel 5, to be held of 22th September at 5.30 pm. The session is the number 5.5 and the title is: “The EU funded research and the Societal Challenges pillar. Different challenges, different approaches” and it is chaired by Dr. Silvia Ciotti. The aim is to analyze the objectives, scientific foundations, expected impact and results of three ongoing projects funded under the EU Societal Challenges pillar: namely, the MARGIN Project (https://marginproject.eu/), the CITY.RISKS Project (https://project.cityrisks.eu/) and the SOURCE – Social Security Network Project (https://societalsecurity.net/).

Even if differing from each other, the three projects address specific challenges in the field of security priorities in Europe by a social or societal viewpoint. Connections, links, best practices and synergies of the EU funded security and social research will be presented and analysed. The first outcomes of the three projects will be presented as well.

The session will be composed by the following presentations:
