The CECC, which was established in Dubrovnik in 1972, brings together representatives of 41 European constitutional or equivalent courts conducting a constitutional review. It promotes the exchange of information among its members on issues relating to the methods and practice of constitutional review and provides a forum for the participants to share opinions on institutional, structural and practical problems in the areas of public law and constitutional jurisdiction. The congresses are organised at regular intervals - every three years. The Croatian Constitutional Court has been a full member of the CECC since 1993.
