Regarding contacts with entities outside the Council of Europe, the CPT maintained its close relations with relevant bodies and agencies of the United Nations throughout 2018.

In the course of 2018, the two bodies decided to reinforce complementarity and subsidiarity to reflect their respective strengths and added values by improving the flow of information between them, consulting each other ahead of visits and on the potential benefits to be gained by the SPT carrying out visits in Europe, and placing particular emphasis on the work of NPMs. Contacts with other external bodies included attendance by the President and the Executive Secretary of the CPT at the Second Regional Meeting on Torture Prevention organised jointly by the Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights of the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE/ODIHR) and the Association for the Prevention of Torture (APT) in Milan on 3 and 4 December 2018.
