What is SIRIO?

In 2016, UNICRI developed the Knowledge Center “Security Improvements through Research, Technology and Innovation" (SIRIO) in Geneva. The Center collaborates with a diverse range of partners, including industry and research institutions (from both the public and private sectors) as well as governmental and intergovernmental entities.

The primary purpose of SIRIO is to analyse and promote knowledge and technology-based solutions aimed at addressing emerging security risks.
