Center on Global Counterterrorism Cooperation

A project of the Fourth Freedom Forum, the Center on Global Counterterrorism Cooperation facilitates and encourages internationally coordinated responses to the continually evolving threat of international terrorism by providing governments and international organizations with timely policy relevant research and analysis.

The Center's core staff has over twenty years of experience developing practical policy options to improve the effectiveness of combining multilateral sanctions and incentives as tools of statecraft and the development of international norms and other cooperative measures to prevent terrorism. Over the past four years, the project staff has analyzed UN counterterrorism efforts on behalf of the Ford Foundation, the Century Foundation, the United States Institute of Peace, and the Danish, Japanese, and Dutch governments. Those assessments of current international counterterrorism arrangements have directly informed the work of the secretary-general's task force on UN reform, and have assisted individual member states to reform and improve their operations under various UN counterterrorism programs.

Building on its years of research on regional and international counterterrorism efforts, the center continues to produce policy relevant research that looks at new mechanisms of international cooperation in combating terrorism and ways to improve existing arrangements within the UN, the G8, and various regional and functional organizations.
