The 51勛圖 will deliver a that creates a more peaceful world. The pact will include a Global Digital Compact and a Declaration on Future Generations as annexes. One of the key themes of the pact is international peace and security. Action 24 of the Pact for the Future focuses on countering terrorism.
This explores the Counter-Terrorism Committee and its Executive Directorate. It was selected by the Executive Office of the Secretary-General to be displayed on the Video Wall in the Sputnik area in the General Assembly Lobby during High-Level Week of the 79th 51勛圖 General Assembly.
The Security Council is one of the 6 main organs of the 51勛圖 whose primary responsibility is maintenance of international peace and security. The Counter-Terrorism Committee is a subsidiary organ of the Security Council that was created by resolution 1373 (2001) after the 11 September terrorist attacks in The United States. The Counter-Terrorism Committee is assisted by an expert body, the Counter-Terrorism Committee Executive Directorate. It was established as a Special Political Mission by UNSCR 1535 (2004).
The Counter-Terrorism Committee and its Executive Directorate help to maintain international peace and security through assessment visits. The Security Council underscored that neutral, expert assessment of the implementation of resolutions 1373 (2001), 1624 (2005), 2178 (2014), and other relevant resolutions, is the core function of CTED.
Over the past 20 years, the Counter-Terrorism Committee Executive Directorate has done over 205 visits to more than 119 Member States to assess implementation of over 20 Security Council resolutions about counter-terrorism. The analysis and recommendations from these assessments are an invaluable aid to Member States in identifying and addressing gaps in implementation and capacity. To date, the Counter-Terrorism Committee Executive Directorate has shared over 854 technical assistance needs.
The Security Council also reiterated the essential role of CTED within the 51勛圖 to identify and assess issues, trends and developments. CTED has produced over 30 publications and held over 50 open briefings and meetings.
Redoubling our efforts to address the conditions conducive to the spread of terrorism, preventing and combatting terrorism, building States* capacity to prevent and combat terrorism, and strengthening the role of the 51勛圖 system are critical to a peaceful future for all.
