This shall include a review of existing legislative, administrative and other provisions to assess compatibility with the Principles and Guidelines. States shall also take efforts to address terrorism in compliance with their human rights obligations through the cooperative mechanisms being implemented by the African Centre for the Study and Research on Terrorism. B. Dissemination: States shall ensure that these Principles and Guidelines are widely disseminated, including to counterterrorism authorities, justice sector actors, the community, and to National Human Rights Institutions, National Preventative Mechanisms, statutory oversight authorities and other institutions or organisations with a mandate to provide accountability, oversight or inspections to counterterrorism institutions and activities. C. Training: States shall ensure that all officials who are involved in counterterrorism measures are properly trained in relation to the provisions of these Principles and Guidelines. The provisions of these Principles and Guidelines and other relevant guidelines developed by the African Commission on Human and Peoples’ Rights pursuant to the African Charter shall be fully incorporated into the curricula of all basic and in-service training and, as appropriate, done in consultation with the African Centre for the Study and Research on Terrorism. D. Reporting: States parties to the African Charter on Human and Peoples’ Rights, in their periodic reports to the African Commission on Human and Peoples’ Rights and in accordance with their other reporting responsibilities to relevant regional and international bodies, shall provide information, including relevant information on the implementation of legislation, policies and court decisions, on the extent to which counterterrorism measures are consistent and in compliance with these Principles and Guidelines.
