In pursuing its statutory aim to achieve greater
unity between its member states, notably in respect of Justice and the Rule
of Law, the Council of Europe is constantly facing new challenges. Our
societies are changing rapidly, and old answers are no longer satisfactory.
In order to anticipate and address new developments, the Council of
Europe periodically convenes Conferences at Ministerial level.
In
its 60 years of existence, the Organisation has held 30 Conferences of the
Ministers of Justice of our member states.
At the close of every conference, the Ministers decide
on proposals for common action to make to the Governments of the Council of
Europe.
The next, 31st Conference will address the
theme of Responses of justice to urban violence.
