Secretary-General's reform

The Counter-Terrorism?Compact was developed as part of ¡¯ of the UN counter-terrorism architecture, following the establishment of the UN 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 17 September 2024, the Counter-Terrorism Compact brings together 46?entities, as members or observers, including 43?51Ó°Ôº 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 51Ó°Ôº?system on preventing and countering terrorism and the underlying spread of violent extremism, while respecting existing mandates.
