A/HRC/8/13 page 7 governance in the context of implementing the strategy. Efforts were also made with regard to the exchange of knowledge, experiences and techniques on countering challenges from terrorism through building national capacities. I welcome all efforts to ensure knowledge and commitments to the values incorporated in the Global Strategy. B. The work of the Security Council’s Counter-Terrorism Committee 12. In May 2006, the Counter Terrorism Committee (CTC) adopted a policy guidance note on how its Counter Terrorism Executive Directorate (CTED) can address human rights. The guidance note provides that when analysing States’ implementation of Security Council resolution 1373 (2001), preparing draft letters to States, providing recommendations and organizing visits, CTED should provide advice to the CTC, including for its ongoing dialogue with States, on international human rights, refugee and humanitarian law, in connection with identification and implementation of effective measures to implement resolution 1373.3 It also provides that CTED should advise the CTC on how to ensure that any measures States take to implement the provisions of Security Council resolution 1624 (2005) comply with their legal human rights obligations. It requests the CTC and the CTED to liaise with my Office and other human rights organizations in matters related to counter-terrorism. The CTED, under the direction of the Committee, should incorporate human rights into their communications strategy. This policy note fed into the appointment of a Human Rights Adviser in CTED, which is an important development. OHCHR is cooperating with CTC and CTED through the work of this Adviser and I attach particular importance for the need to enhance the work of human rights with CTED. 13. The Security Council renewed CTED’s mandate by resolution 1805 on 20 March 2008. The resolution again reminded States that they must ensure that any counter-terrorism measures comply with their international law obligations, including human rights. It also recalled that “CTED should continue in accordance with its mandate, to advise the CTC on issues relating to such law in connection with the identification and implementation of effective measures to implement resolutions 1373 (2001) and 1624 (2005)”. 14. The CTC conducted its fifth special meeting with international, regional and subregional organizations on the “Prevention of Terrorist Movement and Effective Border Security” in Nairobi from 29-31 October 2007 with the support of the CTED. The meeting focused on States’ obligations under relevant Security Council resolutions to take measures related to border security, the restriction of the international movement of terrorists and individuals suspected of terrorist acts, as well as measures linked to the provision of asylum and migration. During the meeting, OHCHR outlined the human rights perspective of these issues, particularly in the context of ensuring border security, and the treatment and the screening of individuals when crossing an internationally-recognized State border. 3 Second report of the Counter-Terrorism Committee to the Security Council on the implementation of resolution 1624 (2005), Chap.
