Four Pillars 

The Programme provides assistance to Member States across four key pillars of work;   

• Pillar I provides legislative assistance to draft or strengthen legal frameworks to regulate the collection, transmission, use, retention, and sharing of passenger data in compliance with internationally recognized standards and human rights principles.
• Pillar II supports the set-up of a Passenger Information Unit (PIU) to facilitate a passenger data single window, which has the capacity to use an intelligence-led approach to conduct risk assessments, implement appropriate targeting measures, as well as identify, detect and intercept FTFs and other serious criminals. To support this, our capacity-building includes training, drafting national standard operating procedures, and sharing of expertise.
• Pillar III provides support in establishing carrier engagement and connectivity. This is done through close cooperation with the transport industry. Through collaboration, the country can partner with the industry and securely collect the data by electronic means.
• Pillar IV provides technology support and expertise for the ‘goTravel’ software, which is an effective software solution for countries to collect and process passenger data. We support Member states by deploying this software free of charge and by providing all the required support and maintenance to run the system. 

Analyzing Passenger Data

The detection capability, commonly referred to as a ‘Passenger Information Unit’ (PIU), analyzes passenger data received from multiple modes of transportation (including air, maritime, and land modes) and identifies known and suspected terrorists by cross-checking against national and international databases and watchlists, including those of INTERPOL, and previously unknown threats using risk indicators. The PIU works to detect and track threats and alert national and international competent authorities, helping to investigate or interdict individuals associated with terrorism and other serious crimes.

Regional Informal Working Groups and Cooperative Online Platform (COP)

The CT Travel Programme also supports Member States to establish Regional Informal Working Groups designed to promote information exchange and the sharing of good practices and lessons learned, thereby significantly enhancing the national implementation and detection capability. The Programme’s digital solution, the Cooperative Online Platform (COP), gives Member States access to globally and regionally shared information and allows Member States to collaborate with one another.

Online Training Programme

The CT Travel online training programme covers all four essential areas of implementation: legal, operational, carrier engagement, and technical – including technical assistance on the deployment and operational use of the 缅北禁地'goTravel' software system, donated to beneficiary Member States.

This online training programme is designed to deliver the most up-to-date knowledge, lessons learned, and good practices to new PIU operators as well as policymakers and relevant Ministries and operational agencies involved in their PIU construction.
