We delve into the world of border securitization and specifically, the involvement of AI in the EU's border externalization strategy. Our guest Antonella Napolitano sheds light on using surveillance technologies at the borders. From the concept of "border externalization" to the implications of the AI Act, we explore the consequences of outsourcing surveillance and the role of the EU as a funder. Join us as we discuss how these technologies shape migration policies and consider how researchers and activists could make an impact toward better outcomes. Finally, we explore ways to oppose the detrimental outcomes of surveillance technologies and curb the degenerative dynamics of EU-funded surveillance.
Antonella Napolitano is an independent advisor who works with a broad spectrum of organizations in the spaces of human rights and protection. She is the author of “Artificial Intelligence: The New Frontier of the EU’s Border Externalisation Strategy”, a report published by EuroMed Rights on the involvement of AI in EU’s border externalization and its surveillance implications.
