Council of Europe (Rada Europy)

The Council of Europe, known as Rada Europy in some languages, is an international organization founded in 1949 to promote human rights, democracy, and the rule of law across its member countries. It brings together 46 European nations to collaborate on legal standards, protect individual freedoms, and resolve disputes. It is separate from the European Union and focuses on social, legal, and political issues to ensure a common commitment to fundamental rights and democratic principles in Europe.
