UNCCT Annual Report

For over ten years, UNCCT has been a Global Centre of Excellence, delivering capacity-building support to Member States in their implementation of the United Nations Global Counter-Terrorism Strategy (GCTS). Since 2022, the Centre has been guided by UNOCT’s first-ever Strategic Plan and Results Framework (SPRF 2022–2025), setting high-level strategic goals and outcomes to orient the activities of both UNCCT and the Office of Counter-Terrorism. UNCCT’s annual results-based reports present the Centre’s significant work and impact as the leading UN entity on CT capacity building, while also highlighting efforts to enhance its strategic support to Member States to ensure the balanced implementation of the Global Counter-Terrorism Strategy.
