1.1 Q: What is the Countering Terrorist Travel (CTT) programme?

A: , led by the United Nations Office of Counter-Terrorism (UNOCT), seeks to build Member States capabilities to prevent, detect, investigate and bring to justice individuals suspected of terrorism or other serious crimes by using passenger data, in accordance with Security Council resolutions 2178 (2014), 2396 (2017) and 2482 (2019) international standards and recommended practices and human rights principles..?

The Programme utilizes an “All-of-UN” approach in partnership with the Counter-Terrorism Committee Executive Directorate (CTED), the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), the Office of Information and Communication Technology (OICT), and the International Criminal Police Organization (INTERPOL).

Each CT Travel Programme Partners CTED, UNODC, ICAO, OICT, and INTERPOL contributes crucial inputs for the overall implementation process. In tandem with awareness raising activities, CT Travel focuses on arranging and conducting prerequisite assessments of confirmed beneficiary Member. The assessment process involves the use of “deep-dive” missions with CTED leading the technology?assessment component. After determining a state’s existing level of implementation, the Programme produces a “roadmap” for the Member State that identifies subsequent steps for implementation across the four pillars:

• Pillar I involves the provision of legislative assistance to establish a legal framework or update existing legislation governing the Passenger Information Unit (PIU) based on expertise provided by UNODC.?

• Pillar II involves institutional set-up of Passenger Information Units (PIU) and capacity-building support, including training, drafting standard operating procedures, and sharing expertise among countries on the use of travel data to stem the flow of FTFs, by UNODC and UNOCT.?

• Pillar III covers supporting beneficiary member states in setting up carrier engagement and connectivity, by actively coordinating with the airlines in beneficiary countries, led by ICAO with support from UNOCT and OICT.?

• Pillar IV covers the provision of technology adoption and support and expertise under the overall strategic guidance of OICT, in the deployment, installation, enhancement and maintenance support of “goTravel”, the UN owned/configured version of the Travel Information Portal (TRIP) system donated by the Kingdom of Netherlands as an effective software solution for countries to collect and process API/PNR data. INTERPOL also supports this pillar by linking goTravel to its databases on known terrorists and serious criminals.

1.2 Q: Which international obligations does the Programme support Member States to comply with?
