The EMERITUS project is approaching its conclusion, with its official end taking place in August 2025.

Since its launch, EMERITUS has focused on strengthening the fight against waste-related environmental crimes by developing a new generation of technological tools and protocols tailored for Law Enforcement Authorities (LEAs) and Border Guards (BGs).

Through collaboration among project partners, the project has delivered a single-entry point platform, integrating innovative monitoring and analysis technologies, alongside a complementary training programme aimed at improving investigation and intelligence capabilities at both national and cross-border levels. The project also explored how such technologies and specialised training and enhance efficiency, reduce operational risks, and act as a deterrent to environmental crime.
