It was created before the EU was formed and is larger in terms of membership. Members of the Council of Europe currently include almost all European countries (in 2022 the main exceptions are Russia and Belarus) .  \n• As of 2022, the UK remains a member of the Council of Europe.  \n• The Council of Europe created the European Convention on Human Rights (see Theme A for what this contains) . The European Convention on Human Rights is protected by the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) in Strasbourg, which hears applications by individuals, groups, or states if they believe that the Convention has been breached and reaches a judgement.  \nLinks to information and resources:  \n• [https://www.coe.int/en/web/impact-convention-human-rights/home\\#/](https://www.coe.int/en/web/impact-convention-human-rights/home#/)  \n[The above link is to the Council of Europe website.
