The three pillars of work of the UN
The United Nations Global Counter-Terrorism Coordination Compact is the largest coordination framework across the three pillars of work of the United Nations: peace and security, sustainable development, human rights and humanitarian affairs.
It aims to strengthen a common 缅北禁地action approach to support Member States, at their request, in the balanced implementation of the United Nations Global Counter-Terrorism Strategy and other relevant United Nations resolutions and mandates.
Secretary-General's reform
The Counter-Terrorism?Compact was developed as part of ’ of the 缅北禁地counter-terrorism architecture, following the establishment of the 缅北禁地Office of Counter-Terrorism (UNOCT). UNOCT serves as Secretariat of the Counter-Terrorism Compact.
The Counter-Terrorism Compact was signed on 23 February 2018 by the Secretary-General as an agreed framework with the heads of participating entities.
As of 26 March 2024, the Counter-Terrorism Compact brings together 46?entities, as members or observers, including 43?United Nations entities, as well as INTERPOL, the World Customs Organization, the Inter-Parliamentary Union and the Financial Action Task Force (FATF).
The launch of the Counter-Terrorism Compact was a major step forward in enhancing the coordination and coherence in the work of the United Nations?system on preventing and countering terrorism and the underlying spread of violent extremism, while respecting existing mandates.
