VIRTUOUS \u2013 Protecting places of worship through research, prevention and cooperation<\/strong><\/p>\n

VIRTUOUS (Vulnerability, Risk Assessment Tools and Training Exercises for the Active Protection of Religious Buildings<\/em>) is a European research and security project. It is funded under the Internal Security Fund and is active from 2025 to 2028.<\/p>\n

The project aims to strengthen the protection of places of worship<\/strong>, educational institutions and European community spaces. To this end, it analyzes threats, assesses vulnerabilities and experiments with innovative technologies, including Building Information Modelling (BIM). In this way, VIRTUOUS contributes to improving prevention, preparedness and response capacity to terrorist attacks and other risks for religious communities.<\/p>\n

The project brings together 21 partners from 11 countries. It also promotes collaboration among religious communities, public authorities, law enforcement agencies, academic institutions, research centres and security experts.<\/p>\n

Activities include vulnerability assessments, Policy Labs, workshops, webinars, simulations and training programmes for places-of-worship leaders and security operators.<\/p>\n

EuroIslam \u2013 Europe Islamic Association contributes to the project through research, knowledge exchange, interfaith dialogue and the development of training resources. The aim is to support the protection of Muslim communities and other places of worship in Europe.<\/p>\n
