Across the globe, the United Nations Office of Counter-Terrorism (UNOCT) leads and coordinates an all-of-UN approach to prevent and counter terrorism and violent extremism. 2022 saw significant counter-terrorism milestones and achievements, despite the rise of new and complex challenges, including those arising from the use of new and emerging technologies by terrorist groups. As the COVID-19 pandemic swept the world, UNOCT scaled up its efforts to help Member States achieve a world free from terrorism by adapting and innovating. In the unprecedented environment, promoting multilateral cooperation remained at the centre of UNOCT\u2019s work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Counter-terrorism<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Counter-terrorism mandate<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Leadership, coordination and capacity-building<\/a> are provided in support of Member States\u2019 efforts to implement UN Global Counter-Terrorism Strategy and take practical steps to prevent and counter terrorism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Border<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Border security<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Terrorists target the weakest links of border infrastructure. Implementing international standards and good practices of sound, modern integrated and cooperative border management<\/a> contributes to stopping terrorist and illegal trafficking flows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Foreign<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Foreign terrorist fighters<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

No country has all answers to cross-border challenges posed by returning and relocating foreign terrorist fighters<\/a> and dependents. International cooperation and exchange of good practices are key for principled prosecution, rehabilitation and reintegration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Prevention<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Preventing violent extremism<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Preventing violent extremism<\/a> conducive to terrorism is a crucial component to comprehensively addressing the threat. PVE requires multidimensional cooperation between Member States, civil society and international and regional organizations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Victims<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Victims of terrorism<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

UNOCT stands in solidarity with victims of terrorism<\/a>around the world and calls for unity to protect their rights and recognize the crucial role they can play in preventing terrorism and building stronger societies. The resilience of victims is an example for all of us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"UN<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

What we do<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We provide leadership, coordination and capacity-building in support of Member States\u2019 efforts to take practical steps to prevent and counter terrorism through a wide-range of activities, projects and programmes<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"countering<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Countering terrorist travel<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Terrorists, as well as those they inspire, represent a major transnational threat. Detecting and disrupting<\/a>the travel of these individuals and groups, and other high-risk criminals, is a priority for the international community, including the United Nations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Gender<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Gender equality<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Mainstreaming gender<\/a> considerations into counter-terrorism work makes preventive and responsive efforts more effective, helps to better understand the drivers of radicalization and recognizes the important role that women play in addressing the threat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Sport<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Sports and security<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The transformative power of sports<\/a> and its positive values bring us together. They also help address conditions conducive to terrorism by building community cohesion and resilience. At the same time, major sporting events are terrorist targets and need to be secure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Chemical,<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

WMD CBRN<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

All countries agree that weapons of mass destruction and chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear materials<\/a> should not fall in terrorists\u2019 hands. Concerted preventive actions are at the core of our response to this global challenge to international peace and security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Vladimir<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Who we are<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Under the leadership<\/a> of the Under-Secretary-General, UNOCT is structured in five components<\/a> to deliver high-quality support to Member States in our common goal to have a world free of terrorism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Cybersecurity\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Cybersecurity<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

While new technologies have transformed our way of life for the better, their misuse by terrorists presents a growing challenge to the security of critical infrastructure and our own. Working together to prevent, protect and mitigate cyber damage<\/a> must be a priority.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"human<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Human rights<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Human rights are a true recognition of our common humanity. They unite people, while terrorism thrives on divisions and represents the denial and destruction of human rights. When we protect human rights<\/a>, we are tackling the root causes of terrorism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Countering<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Terror financing<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The dynamic nature of terrorism financing<\/a> is a crucial challenge to preventive efforts. Comprehensively addressing this evolving threat while upholding human rights and building multidimensional partnerships are priorities of our global programme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Youth<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Youth engagement <\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Terrorist groups target young people<\/a>. They exploit real or perceived grievances and use manipulative messages, including through new technologies to increase their reach across borders and cultures. If prevention is our goal, we need to engage with and invest in youth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
