The AI4SafeEurope Cluster unites some of the most innovative Horizon Europe projects working at the intersection of artificial intelligence, security, and law enforcement. With a shared mission to support law enforcement agencies (LEAs), policymakers, and security stakeholders across Europe, the Cluster fosters collaboration, joint dissemination, and strategic alignment among eight cutting-edge initiatives.
As part of this mission, the Cluster will host an open webinar on 10 September 2025, focusing on the challenge of fake news and disinformation and their impact on European security and democracy. More information below.

The Cluster Projects
Supported by the Booster EU-funded initiative and coordinated by the AVALANCHE project, the Cluster leverages shared knowledge, tools, and outreach to collectively address today’s most pressing challenges: disinformation, hate speech, deepfakes, illicit firearms trafficking, organized cybercrime, and drone-based threats.
AVALANCHE: Empowers LEAs to combat disinformation, hate speech, and deepfakes using AI-powered OSINT, sentiment analysis, and secure intelligence sharing.
CEASEFIRE: Fights illicit firearms trafficking with AI-based tools for online monitoring, in-field detection, and cross-border intelligence sharing.
ENSEMBLE: Tackles cross-border cybercrime using explainable AI, collaborative investigation tools, and real-time threat monitoring.
FERMI: Develops tools for understanding and mitigating offline risks stemming from online disinformation, radicalisation, and fake news.
GANNDALF: Enhances cybercrime detection and investigation with modular decision-support tools, secure data-sharing, and cyber hygiene resources.
NOTIONES: Establishes a practitioner–researcher network to monitor and assess emerging intelligence and security technologies.
PRESERVE: Builds privacy-aware AI tools for proactive threat detection and behavioural risk analysis to support LEAs.
PRESERVE C-UAS: Delivers a counter-UAS platform enabling police authorities to detect and manage drone-based threats in public spaces.
Through monthly coordination meetings, joint workshops, shared workspaces, and ethical AI practices, the Cluster is shaping a more secure and trustworthy digital future for Europe.
Upcoming Webinar: Tackling Disinformation and Fake News
The AI4SafeEurope Cluster will host an open webinar on 10 September 2025, in the framework of the FERMI project’s final event.
This free public session will address the pressing challenge of fake news and disinformation and their impact on European societies, security, and democracy. Experts will discuss how artificial intelligence and advanced investigative tools can empower LEAs, policymakers, and civil society to detect, analyze, and counter disinformation in an ethical and transparent manner.
Participants will also hear about solutions developed within the Cluster and explore complementary perspectives on AI, cybersecurity, and intelligence. The webinar is designed as a platform for knowledge sharing, awareness raising, and open dialogue, strengthening Europe’s collective resilience against information manipulation.
