Projects and Contributions
The International Center of Excellence for Countering Violent Extremism
Good Harbour International assisted the UAE government in standing up the International Center of Excellence for Countering Violent Extremism (CVE) and it is currently managing the Center's operations. The Center opened in December 2012, after Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan the UAE Minister of Foreign Affairs, offered to host the Center in Abu Dhabi. The Center was subsequently re-branded as Hedayah.
The idea for the CVE Center was first floated around the launch of the , held in New York in September 2011. The GCTF announced the need for a multilateral center dedicated to studying the root causes of violent extremism. The Center was created “in response to the growing desire from GCTF members and the wider international community for the establishment of an independent, multilateral center devoted to training, dialogue, collaboration, and research to counter violent extremism in all of its forms and manifestations, one that can bring together experts, expertise, and experience from around the globe”.
Yemen Gulf Cup 2010

The twentieth edition of the Gulf Cup of Nations was hosted by Yemen in Aden. Good Harbour International assisted the Yemeni government with security strategy and operations, in the lead up to and during the tournament. Given Yemen’s high-threat context, the scale of security measures adopted for this event was unprecedented in the history of the country. These measures were pivotal in preventing the occurrence of major terrorist or safety incidents. Good Harbour International supported the Yemeni government with all the security strategy and operations adopted in the lead up to and during the government.
