This chapter examines the notion that the European Landscape Convention (ELC) provides a means of achieving landscape democracy. The Convention contains several innovative features that implies a democratic agenda based on the Council of Europe's (CoE) principles. The Convention's Explanatory Report refers specifically to the need for democracy in view of the special nature, multiplicity and variety of landscape values and of demands on the landscape, and relates this to consultations by the Convention's drafting group in the mid-1990s with scientific bodies, non-governmental organisations, international organisations and regional authorities. Regarding exchange of information and mutual assistance, the Explanatory Report refers to the burgeoning of political, professional and academic interest in landscapes, the development of a growing body of experience and expertise, the growth of electronic communication and improved tools for exchanging ideas, allowing local actors throughout Europe to take part and thus creating a true landscape democracy.
