Supported by the @coe & prepared by @DPRUOxford & @DeathPenaltyP, the report Between Retention and Abolition: Making Sense of a Death Penalty Without Executions was presented at the #9WC. It explores the impact of retaining death penalty in law while not carrying out executions.
Effective counter-terrorism requires more than strong security responses. As @GianlucaCoE Director General Human Rights & Rule of Law, stressed during the 2026 United Nations Counter-Terrorism Week #CTWeek, prevention, partnerships & respect for human rights are essential.
Tomorrow, the 9th World Congress vs the Death Penalty begins in Paris. The @coe continues its efforts to prevent the reintroduction of the death penalty, promote universal abolition & support a new generation of advocates, through its network of young ambassadors with @AssoECPM.
For nearly three decades, the @coe 46 Member states have been a death penalty-free zone. Yet abolition can't be taken for granted.
As pro-death-penalty narratives re-emerge, understanding the region’s abolition journey matters more than ever.
