Europe Day 2026

[Council of Europe @coe]

Today marks 77 years of the Council of Europe 🎉

Since 1949, it has united 46 countries around human rights, democracy and the rule of law, creating a common legal space for 700+ million people.

77 years of human rights in practice.

What did 2025 look like in practice? Last week in Strasbourg, we shared reflections on the Council of Europe work across the continent. Insights from Georgia highlighted concrete results and progress and challenges. More here: https://t.co/7R6cptdxxu

Equal rights mean nothing without #EndViolenceAgainstWomen

The #IstanbulConvention sets a high standard:
✔ Consent-based rape laws
✔ Specialist investigation units
✔ Victim support services
✔ Strong advocacy tools

More meetings with civil society this afternoon. And more direct accounts of violence, by young people still baring the marks of beatings. @CoE has unique means to assess facts and deliver justice. Domestic courts are the primary actors of the @ECHR_CEDH system.
