ABOUT THE CONFERENCE
Well-being, which could be likened to happiness or quality of life, is not, in principle, a legal concept. However, many agree that legal mechanisms such as compensation for damages, measures to eliminate neighborhood problems, environmental law, and subjective rights such as the right to privacy or image rights all pursue the same goal: improving people's well-being. Although the right to well-being does not exist as such, it is now becoming established as a norm aimed at preserving a state of well-being (elimination of various nuisances, right to tranquility, right to a quality living environment, etc.), but also enabling the fight against ill-being (the right to mental health, support for the elderly and the sick). Should we see this as the first steps towards the imminent affirmation in our law of a right to well-being that can be invoked by all? How effective would it be? What would its limits be?
