Resolution: Freedom of expression, association and assembly
The rights to freedom of expression, association and assembly are vital to every democratic society. Freedom of association is a basic fundamental human right, as stated in Article 11 of the European Convention on Human Rights and should form the basis of any pluralist democracy. All groups in society should therefore have the freedom to participate in associative life as this contributes towards the development of a strong democratic civil society.
