Area of Freedom, Security and Justice

The Area of Freedom, Security and Justice (AFSJ) is a framework within the European Union aimed at promoting cooperation among member states in managing issues related to migration, law enforcement, and judicial matters. It focuses on ensuring free movement of people while maintaining security and justice across borders. This includes developing common policies on asylum, combating crime, and enhancing mutual legal assistance between countries. Ultimately, the AFSJ seeks to balance individual rights with collective security, fostering a safer and more cohesive environment in the EU.
