Research assessment

Inclusion rationale
The main report develops AI applications and a roadmap for border control and migration, including their ethical, legal and organisational implications.
Researcher notes
PDF cover issue month is May 2020. PDF p.5 retains a February 2020 internal deliverable cover (D04.01 & D07.01); neither provides an exact day. The dated official May release is used as publication fallback. The main report is independently citable; Volume 2 is a separate addendum outside this review. Only the positively reviewed migration/border sector is assigned.
