On December 11, 2024, the French Association of Law and Economics (AFED) and the Robert Badinter Institute organized a public conference to open the AFED's annual congress, hosted by CRED at Panthéon-Assas University, entitled “Duty of care and new obligations for companies and organizations.”

This meeting provided an opportunity to examine the new obligations imposed on companies and organizations in a changing national and European context, with a view to promoting more responsible practices.

Presentations by Bruno Deffains, Kathia Martin-Chenut, Pierre Chevalier, Alice Navarro, and Chloé Le Coq outlined the various dimensions of this duty of care:

* the gradual development of the standard and its implications for economic actors,

* the uncertainties surrounding the relationship between French and European law,

* the associated economic and social challenges.

This conference also highlighted the need for ongoing dialogue between lawyers, economists, practitioners, and researchers in order to better understand and support the effective implementation of these obligations.
