The complexity of cross-border cases makes it especially difficult for judicial authorities to protect victims’ rights. Involving Eurojust early in the process helps to overcome these difficulties and ensure victims’ protection.

This leaflet explains the challenges involved in safeguarding victims’ rights in an international crime context, and Eurojust’s role in meeting these challenges. The Agency’s expertise and partnerships in this domain are highlighted. Moreover, an infographic illustrating Eurojust’s support to national authorities in protecting victims’ rights throughout all stages of an investigation is also included.
