49. 2018 年 4 月，联合国中亚地区预防外交中心和秘书处反恐怖主义办公室启动了其在中亚执行《联合国全球反恐战略》的联合项目第三阶段，这是第一个此类区域办法。第三阶段的目标是在促进国家自主权的同时开展区域合作。中亚预防外交中心还支持关于共享水和能源资源以及环境退化问题的区域对话，并与拯救咸海国际基金会保持密切合作。中亚预防外交中心采取的办法优先考虑建设国家预防能力，包括水外交方面的能力，并优先考虑与一系列联合国实体以及国际和区域组织建立伙伴关系。鉴于中亚国家日益重视与阿富汗这一重要伙伴开展互动，尤其是经济发展和贸易领域的互动，中亚预防外交中心与联阿援助团密切合作，支持加强该区域各国之间的关系。
49. In April 2018, the United Nations Regional Centre for Preventive Diplomacy for Central Asia and the Office of Counter-Terrorism of the Secretariat launched the third phase of their joint project for implementing the United Nations Global Counter- Terrorism Strategy in Central Asia, the first regional approach of this kind. The aim of this phase is to pursue regional cooperation while fostering national ownership. The Regional Centre also supports regional dialogue on shared water and energy resources and environmental degradation and maintains close cooperation with the International Fund for Saving the Aral Sea. In its approach, the Regional Centre prioritizes building national capacities for prevention, including on water diplomacy, and building partnerships with a range of United Nations entities, as well as international and regional organizations. As Central Asian countries increasingly prioritize engagement with Afghanistan as an important partner, particularly with regard to economic development and trade, the Regional Centre, working closely with UNAMA, has been supporting the strengthening of relationships between countries in the region.
