In November the Council of Europe organized the World Forum for Democracy for the fourth year in row. Despite its name, the Council of Europe is not a part of the European Union nor the European Council but a regional intergovernmental organisation whose stated goal is to promote human rights, democracy, and the rule of law in its 47 member states, covering over 820 million citizens.
