Partnerships
Cooperation with Security Council subsidiary bodies
The Counter-Terrorism Committee Executive Directorate’s (CTED) major partners include the expert groups of other relevant Security Council subsidiary bodies, such as 1. the Analytical Support and Sanctions Monitoring Team, which supports the Committee established pursuant to resolutions 1267 (1999) and the Committee established pursuant to resolution 1988 (2011), and 2. the Expert Group of the Committee established pursuant to resolution 1540 (2004). CTED continues to cooperate closely and exchange information with these partners to ensure an effective and efficient approach to counter-terrorism, including in the context of the preparation of the mandated reports of the Secretary-General on the global terrorist threat.
Cooperation with the Office of Counter-Terrorism and other Global Counter-Terrorism Coordination Compact entities
As a result of the Security Council’s adoption of resolution , CTED enhanced its close cooperation with the Office of Counter-Terrorism and the other member entities of the Global Counter-Terrorism Coordination Compact, acting in accordance with the relevant resolutions of the General Assembly and the Council (in particular the provisions of Council resolution 2617 (2021)) and the relevant provisions of the United Nations Global Counter-Terrorism Strategy, with a view to promoting implementation of the four pillars of the Strategy and the relevant Council resolutions.
CTED acts as Chair or Vice-Chair for eight of the Global Counter-Terrorism Coordination Compact Working Groups, through which it continued to promote and share its recommendations and analysis with the Compact entities.
Engagement with international, regional and subregional organizations and entities, civil society, the private sector, academia, and other non-governmental actors
In line with resolution 2617 (2021), CTED continues to build relationships with relevant experts and practitioners in Member States, relevant international, regional, and subregional organizations, academia, think tanks, civil society, and the private sector.
For example, CTED continues to strengthen its multifaceted partnership with the Global Counterterrorism Forum (GCTF) at both the strategic and programmatic levels, including through the exchange of information and participation in GCTF events. Partnerships have also been established with private sector actors such as providers of biometric applications and solutions; manufacturers of unmanned aircraft systems; and representatives of critical infrastructure and soft-target sectors. CTED also partners with the and and others within the framework of public-private partnerships.
CTED collaborates with regional organizations such as the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, the League of Arab States, the European Union, the Council of Europe, and the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe on, inter alia, integrating the Counter-Terrorism Committee’s latest findings into these partners’ projects and holding periodic coordination meetings to exchange information on areas of common interest and joint activities.
In addition to the relevant conventions and Security Council resolutions, analysis of Member States’ implementation of measures to counter the financing of terrorism is guided by the International Standards on Combating Money-Laundering and the Financing of Terrorism and Proliferation of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) and related guidance. The Security Council has urged Member States to implement the recommendations in a number of resolutions, including resolution 2462 (2019), in which it also explicitly requests CTED to take into account, as appropriate, the mutual evaluation reports of FATF and FATF-Style Regional Bodies. In this regard, CTED continues its close cooperation with FATF and its Global Network, aimed at enhancing the joint understanding of terrorism-financing threats and the best ways to address them.
In the field of protecting human rights while countering terrorism, CTED cooperates closely with the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights and the Special Rapporteur on the protection and protection of human rights and fundamental freedoms while countering terrorism, as well as with regional human rights organizations. CTED also maintains strong cooperation with the International Committee of the Red Cross.
In accordance with resolutions 1624 (2005), 2617 (2021) and other relevant Security Council requirements, CTED actively engages with civil society actors as part of its assessment dialogue with Member States and its approach to countering terrorism and violent extremism conducive to terrorism.
