CDPPOC Symposium – Ski Lifts and the Law

November 20, 2017, 9:00 a.m. - November 21, 2017, 4:30 p.m.

The Center for Public and Private Law on Obligations and Consumer Affairs ((CDPPOC) of the School of Law at the University of Savoie Mont Blanc and the Legal Research Center of theUniversity of Grenoble Alpes organize a national conference on the topic of ski lifts and the law, the November 20 and 21, 2017 at the Le Manège Convention Center in Chambéry.

Despite the sector’s economic significance, the law governing ski lifts has not yet been the subject of a comprehensive study. The conference aims to provide a broad-based study that will be useful to both economic stakeholders in mountain regions and the scientific community. The objective of this event is to clarify the legal framework for the management of ski lifts in mountain areas by highlighting existing uncertainties, identifying the issues at hand, and proposing practical solutions.

This event brings together the academic community—particularly from the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region (Chambéry, Grenoble, Lyon, Clermont-Ferrand)—and local professionals (specialized attorneys, judges, local elected officials, employees of local governments and state agencies, representatives of ski lift companies, etc.).
