3 About ICCT The International Centre for Counter-Terrorism The Hague (ICCT) is an independent international knowledge centre that focuses on policy relevant information creation, collation and dissemination pertaining to the preventative (Prevention Pillar) and international legal aspects (Rule of Law Pillar) of counter-terrorism. The Centre works on themes at the intersection of countering violent extremism and human rights and rule of law related aspects of counter-terrorism, including such domains as de- and counter-radicalisation, rehabilitation and reintegration of violent extremist offenders, the role of civil society actors and victims in countering violent extremism, and effective rule of law based approaches in investigating and prosecuting violent extremists. ICCT operates in a high-paced, complex and politically sensitive environment. The Centre is supported by a unique partnership comprising three renowned institutions based in The Hague: the T.M.C. Asser Instituut, the Netherlands Institute of International Relations Clingendael, and the Centre for Terrorism & Counterterrorism of Campus The Hague / Leiden University. About the GCTF The Global Counterterrorism Forum (GCTF) was established in 2011 as a pragmatic, informal and action-oriented platform. Its overarching and long-term goal is to reduce the vulnerability of people everywhere to terrorism by effectively preventing, combating, and prosecuting terrorist acts and countering incitement and recruitment to terrorism. It provides a venue for national counterterrorism (CT) officials and practitioners from 29 member countries, the European Union and non-gctf members, to meet with their counterparts from key countries and agencies in different regions, to share CT experiences, expertise, strategies, capacity needs, and capacitybuilding programmes. It prioritises civilian capacity building in areas such as rule of law, border management, and countering violent extremism. The United Nations is a close partner of the GCTF and a regular participant in its activities. A core part of the Forum's mission is to support the implementation of the UN Global Counter- Terrorism Strategy around the globe and it places particular emphasis on working closely with the United Nations and other relevant multilateral bodies. The GCTF maintains an inclusive, even-handed, and transparent approach to its work while continuing to be an informal, action-oriented, and flexible platform committed to ensuring that it attracts the most capable and experienced CT policymakers and experts to the table. By doing so, it operates consistent with and complementary to the United Nations and other international and regional organisations. The 30 founding members of the GCTF are: Algeria, Australia, Canada, China, Colombia, Denmark, Egypt, the European Union, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Jordan, Morocco, The Netherlands, New Zealand, Nigeria, Pakistan, Qatar, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Spain, Switzerland, Turkey, the United Arab Emirates, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Additionally, some 39 non-member states have participated in one or more GCTF activities. Experts from a number of such bodies have worked closely with the GCTF and participated in its activities, including the African Union, the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, the Council of Europe, the Economic Community of West African States, The Intergovernmental Authority on Development, the Organisation of American States, and the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe. 3
4 Thematic and regional focus areas While the official GCTF structure is based on a set of two regional capacity-building working groups and four thematic working groups, the GCTF now covers a wide range of overarching and interrelated issues: Addressing the "foreign terrorist fighters" problem Promoting criminal justice responses to terrorism grounded in human rights and the rule of law Supporting victims of terrorism Taking action against kidnapping for ransom and other sources of terrorism funding Supporting multi-sectorial approaches to countering violent extremism, including community engagement and community-oriented policing Rehabilitating and reintegrating violent extremist offenders Supporting efforts to address instability in the Sahel and other key regions Inspiring and supporting new international centres and initiatives to address critical challenges Developing a worldwide network of civilian CT practitioners Catalysing implementation of the United Nations framework for countering terrorism Structure The GCTF consists of a strategic-level Coordinating Committee, co-chaired by Turkey and the United States; four thematic and two regional expert-driven Working Groups; and a small Administrative Unit. The current Working Groups and their co-chairs are: Countering Violent Extremism (United Arab Emirates and United Kingdom), Criminal Justice and the Rule of Law (Egypt and United States), Detention and Reintegration (Australia and Indonesia), Foreign Terrorist Fighters (Morocco and the Netherlands), Horn of Africa Region Capacity Building (European Union and Turkey), and Sahel Region Capacity Building (Algeria and Canada). Impact In just over five years, the GCTF has made important progress in various ways. Major achievements include: The GCTF has developed a series of good practice documents on a range of civilian CT issues: o The Hague Marrakesh memorandum on good practices for a more effective response to the Foreign Terrorist Fighter phenomenon; o The Abu Dhabi memorandum on good practices for education and countering violent extremism o The Hague memorandum on good practices for the judiciary in adjudicating terrorism offenses o The Madrid memorandum on good practices for assistance to victims of terrorism 4
5 o The Ankara memorandum on good practices for a multi-sectorial approach to countering violent extremism o The good practices on community engagement and community policing as tools to counter violent extremism o The Rabat memorandum on good practices for effective counterterrorism practices in the criminal justice sector o The Rome memorandum on good practices for rehabilitation and rehabilitation of violent extremist offenders o The Algiers memorandum on preventing and denying the benefits of kidnapping for ransom by terrorists The mobilization of more than $300 million to support CT-related strengthening of criminal justice systems, with a particular focus on countries in transition. The launch of the Global Community Engagement and Resilience Fund (GCERF) in November 2014 in Geneva, the first-ever public-private global fund to support local, grass-roots efforts to counter violent extremism in all its forms; The creation of the International Institute for Justice and the Rule of Law (IIJ) in Malta, dedicated to providing criminal justice officials from across North, West, and East Africa with human rights-compliant training to address terrorism and related security challenges within a rule of law framework. The December 2012 launch in Abu Dhabi of Hedayah, the first-ever international centre for training, dialogue, research, and collaboration on countering violent extremism. The GCTF has served as a platform for discussion of topical but sensitive issues. About the Administrative Unit The GCTF started off with a small Administrative Unit providing a coordination and support function and enabling members to drive the agenda of the Forum s activities. The Unit has been very efficient and successful, preparing framework documents and supporting a diversity of workshops and meetings. The United States has been financing and hosting the Unit, and has provided its staff together with Coordinating Committee co-chair Turkey. In 2014 the Coordinating Committee reviewed the structure and operation of the Administrative Unit, its size, composition, functions and source of funding. Members indicated the desire for enhanced capabilities and support both administrative and substantive from the Unit. Members noted the need to increase local ownership of activities, empowering members and implementing partners to take on leadership roles to further drill down and implement existing Good Practices documents. Strengthening the cooperation with the UN and regional organizations and developing a strategic communication approach were also considered important priorities. The Coordinating Committee decided at the Sixth Meeting on 22 September 2014 to consider a modest expansion of the GCTF Administrative Unit. Such an expansion will ensure the long-term sustainability of the GCTF and help meeting the increasing demands from GCTF members for enhanced capabilities and support from the Unit. The Unit is expected to remain flexible and open to new initiatives, further building on the Forum s accomplishments, consolidating and coordinating its work to find synergies across thematic and regional working groups. 5
