Since 2010, within the framework of what came to be known as the Interlaken Process<\/em>, three further high-level conferences on the future of the European Court of Human Rights were convened. These conferences – 2011 in Izmir, Turkey; 2012 in Brighton, UK, and 2013 in Oslo, Norway – were held in order to identify the means to guarantee the long-term effectiveness of the Convention<\/em><\/strong> system.<\/p>\n

During the 4th conference, held 2015 in Brussels, Belgium, the Ministers of Justice of the Council of Europe member states adopted an Action Plan aimed at strengthening the implementation of the judgments<\/em><\/strong> by the member states.<\/p>\n

The 5th – and final – conference was organised in Copenhagen within the framework of the Danish Chairmanship of the Committee of Ministers: in April 2018, the Ministers of Justice adopted a declaration concerning the reform of the European human rights system.
