The European Funds, an important financing tool
These financial instruments allow the various Member States (MS) to return a large part of the budget of the projects implemented in the field of security thanks to the Work Programs that regulate these funds.
SGSICS is responsible, among other functions, for submitting and managing the return of European funds for those systems for which it is responsible or in which it has an economic participation.
Over the last few years, SGSICS, on behalf of the Ministry of the Interior, has been and is the beneficiary of different European funds with the aim of maintaining the security of citizens, protecting the Schengen area from illegal immigration and cross-border crime, and promoting the digital transformation of society, the economy and public administrations in the European Union (EU). These Funds have been implemented since 2007 through different tools and are expected not only to continue, but also to address new challenges.
The execution of European funds is carried out with the aim of obtaining the highest possible economic return that will allow the future execution of other projects. In particular, a total of 108 million euros has been returned through European funds.
