CEP Event: Tackling The Multiplicity Of Security Challenges In Taliban-Run
Afghanistan And Neighboring Countries – Terrorism, Organized Crimes, Human
Rights, And Humanitarian Assistance



(New York, N.Y.) – The Counter Extremism Project (CEP) alongside the Permanent
Missions of Afghanistan, Canada, and Spain as well as the Afghanistan Policy
Lab of the Princeton School of Public and International Affairs (SPIA) and the
International Institute for Justice and the Rule of Law (IIJ) invite you to a
United Nations side event on the multiplicity of security challenges in
Taliban-run Afghanistan and neighboring countries.



Almost two years after the Taliban takeover, international, regional, and
foreign actors have diverse views about terrorist threats and security risks
emerging from the Taliban-run Afghanistan. Despite their shared high degree of
concern, there is an absence of any internationally agreed-upon strategy or
common agenda on how to deal with the Talibande facto authorities while
managing insecurity within and coming from Afghanistan.



This side event will address the challenges U.N. Member States face in
implementing relevant Security Council resolutions and adopting operational
security measures within the rule of law framework to preserve the fundamental
rights and freedoms of the Afghan people in a manner that is consistent with
the overall objective of promoting peace and stability in Afghanistan under the
Charter of the United Nations and international law, and in line with
obligations under international human rights law, refugee law, and humanitarian
law.



This event will be both in-person and online via Microsoft Teams.

Time: 9:00 a.m. ET / 15:00 CET to 12:00 p.m. ET / 18:00 CET
