href="https://www.un.org/en/counterterrorism/hlc/index.shtml" target="_blank">United Nations High-level Conference of Heads of Counter-Terrorism Agencies of Member States</a> in New York, under the theme “Strengthening international cooperation to combat the evolving threat of terrorism”. More than a thousand participants from 150 Member States, 30 international and regional organisations, 55 civil society organisations and 31 United Nations entities attended the event. The High-Level Conference was held back-to-back with the Sixth Biennial Review of the United Nations Global Counter-Terrorism Strategy, creating for the first time a Counter-Terrorism Week at the United Nations in New York.</p> <p>One of the key outcomes of the conference, on the initiative of Secretary-General Guterres, was for UNOCT to partner with Member States to organise several Regional High-level Conferences in order to keep up the momentum on key counter-terrorism issues and strengthen international cooperation. The Regional High-level Conferences are organised in the lead-up to the next High-level Conference of Heads of Counter-Terrorism Agencies of Member States, in June 2020, to promote implementation of the <a href="/counterterrorism/un-global-counter-terrorism-strategy">UN Global Counter-Terrorism Strategy</a> and relevant General Assembly and Security Council resolutions.</p> <h2>Objectives</h2> <p>The Regional High-level Conferences serve as a platform for Member States to exchange information, expertise and resources, develop partnerships, and collectively address a range of critical counter-terrorism issues. They support a multilateral approach to countering the enduring and evolving transnational threat of terrorism, within the framework of international law and human rights, through:</p> <ul> <li>Promoting the comprehensive and balanced implementation of the United Nations Global Counter-Terrorism Strategy, and other relevant resolutions of the General Assembly and the Security Council</li> <li>Promoting regional and international cooperation and partnerships</li> <li>Facilitating dialogue and the exchange of experiences in developing and implementing whole-of-government and whole-of-society approaches to counter-terrorism, including to prevent and counter violent extremism conducive to terrorism</li> <li>Strengthening political support for the UN’s counter-terrorism efforts</li> <li>Promoting practical engagement with civil society partner</li> <li>Preparing for the Second United Nations High-level Conference of Heads of Counter-Terrorism Agencies of Member States in 2020 in New York</li> </ul> <h2>An overview of the Regional Conferences</h2> <h3>Upcoming Conferences</h3> <p>No upcoming Regional High-level Conferences have been announced yet</p>
