The Nexus between Organized Crime and Terrorism in the Americas

This discussion took place at a side event that was organized by UNICRI, OAS and CTED, with the support of the Permanent Mission of Chile during the 2023 Counter-Terrorism Week. It served as a platform to share the findings, highlights and key takeaways of the joint OAS-UNICRI study on the linkages between organized crime and terrorism in the Americas with participants. It is expected that the outcome of the side event will contribute to further raising awareness of the relevance of the nexus for the Americas and trigger an ensuing dialogue that will be valuable for participating counter-terrorism agencies, as well as Member States actively engaged in the eighth review the Global Counter-Terrorism Strategy.
